And the heat wave rolls on... The summer crops (summer squash, cukes, beans) are just on the brink of harvest, but for now we've got more spring-type CSA offerings.
Lettuce mix with mustard greens
LOTS of peas, please!
From top to bottom: Arugula, mizuna, mustard greens
Lettuces love the moisture and shade of dense plantings
In your share this week:
head of fresh garlic
bunch arugula
bag lettuce mix with mustard greens
2 lbs sugar snap peas
1+ lbs snow peas
herbs: large bunch cilantro, sage, chamomile, dill
flowers: bee balm, rudebeckia, hydrangea, onion flowers
A hoophouse shot, with sides up for ventilation.
Next on my list: cuke trellising, transplanting out more summer flowers, hilling potatoes, lots of weeding and succession planting along the way. The neighbors came and cut the hayfield over the weekend, and our lush little microclimate of head high orchardgrass, timothy, alfalfa and clover is no longer. Hope everyone had a happy Fourth!
