Week 7

Hi Everyone,

Week 7 is here already and the farm is a very busy place, as massive watering has been added to the daily chores. We have had 5/8 inch of rain in the last 20 days and most crops like an inch a week, so we are very dry. The summer squash is coming on like gangbusters and the cucumbers have begun along with the red potatoes and carrots. The beans, corn and tomatoes aren't far behind. This week's share consists of:

Red Potatoes
Summer Squash
Pickling Cucumbers (you don't have to pickle them to enjoy them or be pickled to enjoy them)
Swiss Chard (recipe on web site)
Onions
Garlic
Golden Beets
Carrots

Remember we still have a stock of chicken in the freezer, eggs are always available and we will be extracting honey in another week or so with our brand new shiny extractor!

All the best!

Vicky and Steve
