The Big View

From SHF CSA


The share today is basically the same as Monday's share, so I thought I'd post a photo of the farm from above. The two rows of beds on the right are the expansion from this year, 38 new beds to add to the original 28. The grassy area in the middle is the next area to move into over the next few weeks as we plant out the rest of the fall and winter vegetables. Ten more beds or so will bring us almost up to 80, which is our absolute max possible in the existing space. It was hot today but we rolled the dice anyway, seeded some carrots, beans and dill, flats of lettuce, chicory, and broccoli and put down a bunch of water. The summer crops look like they're loving the heat. If only this had come a month ago, I'm not sure how much time they have to put on the growth they need to. We'll see, always different every year.
