Farmers Market Opens

The Logan County Farmers Market opened with 16 vendors this year! It was a beautiful day and very exciting to see so many familiar faces again. We had a huge crowd and I think everyone enjoyed themselves!

We took lettuce, bok choi, asparagus, rhubarb, green onions, maple syrup and a few herbs. We never can get enough ready early enough to keep all our customers satisfied! But "next year" we're going to try something else to be able to provide more early spring product.

We could use new vendors who are committed to early spring crops like the lettuce, spinach, radishes, any other greens, onions, etc. If you're interested or know of a budding gardener in the area, give us a call.

We have all or our onions planted ...around 4400 plants. They aren't looking as good as in year's past. One never knows what mother nature will deal a farmer. But our produce in the hoophouses are growing rapidly and we even have some early green beans up in the garden. We'll see if we get another frost yet this spring that will kill them off....

We planted new purple asparagus this year and all of the plants are up; we didn't lose any. I think we did lose a few of last year's roots, but will fill in those spots when we did out our old beds.

That's it this week on the farm! -- Jandy's
