North Field Farm

Love supporting local businesses, but I won't be getting starters from this farm again. Normally we get them from growing gardens in Boulder, but given the pandemic I wasn't sure if there would be an online ordering system in place. I found this through local social media post and decided to get starters delivered from them.

The delivery date was a couple weeks after what they had quoted. when my starters arrived, they literally were just putting on 2nd/3rd set of leaves. It appears the peppers weren't hardened off because quickly after transplanting them (they claimed all plants were hardened off), they went into shock and most of them failed to recover. It is now mid July and I despite having plants that are 4-5 feet tall, I've yet to harvest a single tomato. Given the short growing season here, I'm very disappointed about even recouping the $ I put into starters this year. We are usually dropping grocery bags full of tomatoes and peppers to our neighbors by August.
