Tuesday is for planting seeds, killing weeds, and resting under trees. It may be hot, but we couldn't ask for better weather when it comes to eradicating the weeds! We have a big crew today and it feels great to get the farm looking clean. Around here we plant weekly! Seeds starts for lettuce and direct seeding carrots, beets, cilantro!

Admiring our garlic on this sort of rainy day. Garlic is one of my favorite crops to grow. I love that its rhythm is different than our other crops. Plant in the fall, scape harvest June, full harvest July. Plus it’s the first thing to pop up in nice green rows early in the spring. And it’s SO DELICIOUS!

We’ll be scouting for scapes weekly. We expect to see them in about 10 days or so. We can’t to bring these to you!!

Yesterday was a huge harvest day! We will have carrots and beets on the stand again. Full lineup includes: lettuce mix, head lettuce (giant), radish, spinach, scallions, asparagus, bok choy. The second picture I snapped while we were debating the most efficient placement for our root washer! Finally moved that outside to make more space for washing & packing.

Setting up pea trellis with Maisie (intern not pictured). The three of us knocked out a bunch of weeding today as well. It was too hot for me, but we made it! This year Dan planted almost double the amount of peas we usually sell. I hope they fare well in the coming weeks so we have lots to share.
