It was so nice to meet you all last week. I hope you all enjoyed your greens and tried your new recipe. As we ease into summer we are seeing rows of baby beans, summer squash, and broccoli. I have been transitioning the greenhouses from lettuce, asian greens, and kale to tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, and winter squash. The rain makes everything happy including the weeds, but we seem to be staying just ahead of them and the farm is looking lovely.
I want to tell you that there is a hefty amount of nutrients in the food you pick up in your weekly share. The veggies carry maximum vitamins, picked ripe with hardly any lost in transit. As an organic farmer I incorporate an incredible amount of calcium and potassium that the vegetables use to grow and then deliver to you. Each one is powerful and full of love.
