Farm Update

Down on the Farm

As we begin to prepare for fall here on the farm, many of the summer veggies are slowing down or done completely. Tomatoes are slowing down, onions are done completely. The winter squash is slowing down, zucchini is done completely. Corn is slowing down, garlic is done completely. I am slowing down, but I'm not done completely. We still have Fall broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, lettuce, broccoli raab, and spinach still to come. Our fall planting of potatoes failed to sprout, so unfortunately we will have no more potatoes

I still have no idea what happened to the TV piece Fox 45 shot here. I have left messages and emails to no avail. There are a few reasons they may not have run it:
1..The reporter got chicken poop on her high priced shoe and was mortified
2..The producers may have felt my close up shots would scare small children
3..My description of our cucumbers may have been to graphic
4..The glare from the top of my head could have ruined all the shots
5..Every time the reporter said the word Rousedale, I took a drink.

In the market:

Butternut Squash
Spaghetti Squash
Acorn Squash
Green Peppers
Red Mini Bell Peppers
Hungarian Hot Wax Peppers
Jalapeno Peppers
Salad Mix
Arugula

Remember if you want to can or freeze any corn this year, let us know a few days in advance how much you'll need and we will have it for you. Also we will be doing our organic apple buying trip soon and will be letting you know in the next few weeks what will be available and pricing.

See you soon!







Locally Yours,
Vicky and Steve
