September 26
Today is the last day of the summer basket program. We couldn't of asked for a better season. It did get off to a rough start because we had changed our organic soil supplier and weren't happy with the new product but thankfully the weather was perfect and made up for it. Next week, we continue on until December with a smaller group. There is so much growing out there! Crops for Fall baskets , will continue with potatoes, beets,carrots, kohlrabi, celery,peppers, leeks, turnips, radishes, onions, shallots, hot sauce and lots and lots of greens...all of which will get sweeter as the temperature drops. When all is done we'll move into the greenhouses to carry us through.
In your basket this week:
A beautiful Chez Nous Salad Mix
Flower Sprout (Greens) Tops ...topping the plant encourages the sprouts to grow
Leeks
Potatoes
Tomatoes
A few tomatillos
Radishes
Juicers also got Beet Greens, Sunflower Sprouts and the last of cucumbers
Below are the Flower Sprouts before being topped - they are a cross between kale and Brussels Sprouts
Lots of leeks to go!
I've started dehydrating some paprika peppers...they are so good!
Thank you for your continued support!
