What’s Growing: Week of 8/8

It’s been awhile since we updated our blog…we’ve been enjoying getting to know our new baby so it hasn’t been on the top of our minds.

This week our CSA members will receive tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, salad mix, bell peppers, cucumbers or eggplant, and summer squash.  The family size share will also receive Swiss chard, pole beans, and a muskmelon. We’re a little bummed that it didn’t rain today (we’re going on three weeks without measurable rain here).  We’re still watering (every day now) but it won’t make up for what comes naturally.  This means outdoor crops (especially beans) are slowing down.  We hope you’ll consider signing up for the fall CSA now if you haven’t already…we planted lots last week and will finish in the next couple weeks. Hope you stay cool and enjoy your week!
