This week’s CSA: Green and Red “Little Gem” Lettuces, Spinach, Sugarsnaps, and Garlic Scapes!
I lost all of our fall-planted garlic in the December flood, so I’m super excited that our friends at Boldly Grown had them, and that Puget Sound Food Hub makes it easy to support other Washington farmers.
Also, it looks like I’ll open up the Cutflower Garden to CSA members next week — Eric has the honor of cutting the first bouquet today!💐

Jet doesn’t like Sugarsnaps. But he knows they’re special, so he takes them and hides them from me.
Luigi loved Sugarsnaps. They were his favorite treat ever.
Mario would rather hunt rodents than waste time eating peas - always on the prowl.
Picking Sugarsnaps for this the first CSA pickup of 2026. Better late than not at all - I’m just grateful for the recovery. It’s going to be a yummy summer.
Full-season CSA starts Saturday/Tuesday! Summer-only CSA will start the first week of July!

No regrets about planting myself a wee patch o strawbs this spring. 😋🍓 Just enough for my breakfast.

This is pretty exciting: Michael is taking the old engine out of the G to prepare for the new electric motor. Next, the axle needs to be taken apart to replace the brakes for steering.

Got a bunch of things planted outside, finally! Broccoli, Cabbage, Lettuce, Parsley, Thyme, Green Onions, and Fennel. Spinach is popping up, Baby Bok Choi, Turnips, and Arugula too.
Feels so good to be growing food again!

Also, remember when we didn’t get irrigation going until late June? 🫠

We got a slow start post-flood, but the season is ramping up! Sugarsnaps, radishes, and lettuce are pumping up, and arugula, spinach, and salad turnips won’t be far behind.

Thanks to the help of Brent and Sean, and Michael for prepping ground… the taters are all in! 350 # in 11 different varieties.

Planted out all the Cutflower bebés who are ready to go into the world! It feels so hot today, but it’s still April! Irrigation is on, and tomorrow I focus on food plants again. 🌱🙌🏼🌱
Thanks so, so much to Jess for bringing me all these Dahlias yesterday! 💐 They’ll go out as soon as they’re sprouted up.

At last, the Osprey pair have chosen a new light pole to nest on in the rail yard! This one was working at collecting dead branches out of one of my Ash trees to build the nest foundation.
I’m SO happy they decided to stay and rebuild. Just like the rest of us. 😍 It wouldn’t be the same here without them.
