This week on the farm

All the Fall plantings are in! Last night with the storms going through the area, we sat with the lap top watching the radar in hopes we wouldn't get a downpour that would wash away everything we had just planted. Things look fine this morning. The last couple of weeks have been very busy (thank you!) and we have sold out of many things. We are out of boneless breasts and thighs, but still have wings, legs and whole chicken available. We still have a few beets, onions and potatoes. We still have plenty of tomatoes, although the heirlooms have really slowed down. We are selling our own organically grown corn now. There is a limited amount. We will pick it on request, so if you come for some, plan on a ten minute picking time. We have dug all the sweet potatoes and they look beautiful. We will let them cure for a couple of weeks to build up the sugar content. We also have a few of our grapes that are ripe and delicious, more will ripen through the next couple of weeks. We planted a variety, some seedless table grapes, some juice grapes with seeds. The bean beetles have devoured the green beans, we have more coming in a few weeks. We will have plenty of corn this weekend, as usual, from the Miller Farm.
