We Must Be Doing Something Right

After last year's weather and continual struggle to grow bountiful crops, we are so relieved that things are looking up. The beets and carrots are already much bigger than we were able to grow last year and we sold out of them very quickly.  We have a ways to go this season but it was so nice bringing such a bountiful spread to the market on Saturday. We were left with a lot of lettuce because just about everyone sells greens this time of year, but our heads were massive and looked beautiful.

After the market we went back to the garden to get in some weeding. Terry staked all of the tomatoes and we are confident we will have a better crop than last year. We are only going to bring a small selection of tomato plants to the market next week, but we do have plenty left so please call or email us if you still need to get some for your own garden!

My favorite part of the farm is being able to eat what we grow. Tonight's dinner was pork steaks from Sand Farm, sauteed swiss chard, scapes, onions, Sand Farm bacon, and broccoli with a side of fried potatoes. This meal was just what I needed to start out the week and I look forward to eating more and more produce as it is ready!
