Call to be added to the list for summer veggies!
We have had a great season with our first late winter/early spring veggie sales, but we kept it limited to get a feel for how things would work.
Soon it will be time to start up the summer veggie deliveries, full blast! Call to get on the waiting list - 870-653-3062, or send me an email through the local harvest contact page - or find us on Facebook and send us a message that way.

- The last of the winter spinach - and a healthy crop of nutgrass :(
Well, this was it - the last 2013 late winter/early spring veggie delivery. We will take a few weeks off while warm weather crops are getting ready - then we will be calling subscribers to get going again for the summer delivery season!
One of my chores this week will be pulling the rest of this spinach row, harvesting the leaves, throwing the rest to the chickens - then waging war on the nutgrass so that bed can be planted for summer.

- Tomatoes growing! 'Spudakee' is similar to a Sunshine for Dinner favorite, 'Cherokee Purple'
We are approaching our last week of early spring veggie deliveries. We have harvested a lot of the variety that has been growing, like broccoli, cauliflower, and our super-early container grown new potatoes. Nothing left but leafy greens and as the days (and nights) warm up, these plants are rapidly going to seed.
So for this bag, our subscribers got double eggs and a big bunch of whatever leafy greens I could round up. In a few weeks, we will be starting the delivery schedule again. In the meantime, we will be pulling out old winter crops and putting in new summer crops, like tomatoes, squash, and peppers. And eggplant, and basil, and cucumbers, and beans, and.... so many possibilities!
