Wild Things Farm

Now that the season is winding down the CSA farmer can stop and take a little breath.....just a little one because there are still stakes to pull and store, wires to roll up, beds to mulch and plant with cover crops, drip tape to roll up (that was a waste of time this year!), pumps to winterize...blah, blah, blah.  I was working in the gardens the other day and realized that cleaning up after a season of growing is kind of like cleaning up after a New Year's Eve party!

Even though this year was a "washout" as far as the rainfall went, most of the crops still did well.  Tomatoes, carrots, and spinach were the worst fatalities of the year, but green beans, potatoes and eggplant did exceptionally well.

The website for the farm has been re-vamped and moved to a new host to make updates simpler for the farmer.  A blog page is included in the website to keep members and visitors up-to-date on what's happening at the farm. 

Also, during these past few weeks preparations for the future have been made; more strawberry plants, cranberry plants, and asparagus plants have been added to the thornless blackberries and rhubarb to provide members a variety of fruits and perennial veggies to round out their shares in future deliveries.
