Colvin Family Farm

Drizzling, cold, bleak, dreary--if you went by the weather, then you would think that we were having a terrible week. However there are things that bring cheer to a rainy day--Winter Rye cover crops are turning the fields green, lettuces and other greens are still growing in the greenhouse...It has been a slower week on the farm, but there is still plenty to do! We must keep the frost blankets covering the crops that are left--continually combating the wind that fight to lift them off. We must slog our way around the fields caring for the livestock, open and close the vents on the greenhouse to maintain a consistent temperature--on and on, the small things add up to a full day, then a full week. Just as November slipped by before we could fully realize that it was here, so will December. It is amazing how time flies! There are only three months till we start planting in the greenhouse, and it just gets busier from there! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<P>Market Update: This week we will be able to bring up to market:

<P>Green & Red Lettuces, Fresh Carrots, Mixed Greens, Salad Mixes, Green Onions, Radishes, Arugula, Turnip Greens, Mustard Greens and Kale. Also look for our wooden toy stand! We will have all kinds of old-fashioned wooden toys, as well as other crafts! Hope to see you Saturday!
