The bees have taken over the basil that’s gone to flower. We left it standing for them.

Trellis netting up around the beans, the deer have been finding their way in.

And compost down and seed going into the winter tunnels. Spinach, tatsoi, mizuna, Tokyo bekana, claytonia, mâche. That’s what winter boxes are made of.

September is the month that decides February.

Everything that goes in your winter box was planted in the last four weeks. Here’s what went in the ground:

3½ beds of Bolero storage carrots — they get candy-sweet after the first frost
Three beds of spinach
Baby romaine, arugula, Hakurei turnips, radishes
Beets, rutabaga, scallions
Chard, kohlrabi, broccoli, kale, collards

Two new tunnels went up this week. Everything we plant in them from here — tatsoi, mizuna, Tokyo bekana, claytonia, mâche — is for the winter boxes.

After November 20 nothing grows much. What’s in the ground now is the season.

Winter CSA runs November 25 through April 7. Link in bio.

First box back after the August break. Lettuce, arugula, basil, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, and two kinds of microgreens — pea shoots and radish, cut this morning, grown in sunshine.

Summer and fall in the same bag. The cucumbers are finishing up, but the fall greens are coming on strong behind them.

Winter CSA signups are open — 20 weeks starting November 25. Link in bio.

Would you look at that,… Romaine in the boxes this week and summer lettuce is making a comeback. I guess this broccoli never wants to produce this year. Cilantro and need to get on trellising and pruning these tomato plants. 🍅🥬🌱

📬 CSA Update: One-Week Delay

Hey friends!

After this wild rollercoaster of weather, our veggies are finally waking up and putting on some serious growth! 🌱 They’re still taking their sweet time to size up nicely, so we’re shifting everything back by -one week- to let the veggies size up a bit more.

Your first delivery will now be the week of April 15th.
Thank you for rolling with us and supporting the farm through the ups and downs. Can’t wait to fill your boxes soon! 💚
