Seems we have been so caught up that nearly a month has passed since we last posted an entry. Things have just been going at a breakneck pace and while I had a half dozen or so posts put together in my head my hands never made it to a keyboard to transfer the information.

The market season has been going well for us all things considered. This year we had plans to have more than a dozen varieties of vegetables and have them all ready to go at the beginning of the season. One of the big learning experiences of the year though is that you have to choose your battles. Apples are demanding, jealous and fussy. They don't give you much of a chance or appreciate it if you spend your time with others. As a result, we only got about two-thirds of what we wanted going, and most of that much later than we hoped for. Still yet, this is not necessarily a bad thing, just one of the lessons along the road.

We have regrouped and got a late spring planting done that should start coming in late July or so. We also are finding some time for the fall planting now. Organization and planning are where the future is for our vegetables.

Happy farming.
