Wow, it's September! Can't believe how short the days are getting now. We've even seen a few leaves turning lately on the mountaintops. And, we only have 2 months to go with our farmers market season.
What does that mean?
The light at the end of the tunnel is finally starting to show itself! This season has sure had its ups and downs! Most of the downs had to do with all those downpours we got for the first half of the season.
Some ups included the new sweet corn experiment (yummy!), the Italian roasting peppers (again, yum!), trying a fall planting of cauliflower and broccoli without plastic mulch, and trading veggies with Backbone Farm to "supplement" both our CSA's to provide more variety this time of year.
I guess it's too early to get too reminiscent! There's still lots to do. We need to clean up the fields and plant cover crops, clean out the tunnels and get them ready for spring, and get the greenhouse ready for spring as well.
Farm work never ceases.
