Farmers’ market cruises along…

15 Aug 20082 Aug 2008 by Mike (tfb)

It’s 11 am and most of our harvest is sold. This is good, because the quantities of what we’ve been bringing have been fine. Still, with no early tomatoes, late green beans, not much summer squash, a wiped out first … Read the rest

Laid back Friday harvest…

15 Dec 20081 Aug 2008 by Mike (tfb)

With the poor weather-driven slow growth and setbacks (like, hail), Friday harvests so far this year have been nothing like last year, much easier, less to do, relaxed. There are usually three to five people for all or part of … Read the rest

View from the stand

15 Dec 200815 Jul 2008 by Mike (tfb)

It’s mid-July, and on a (recently rare) sunshiney afternoon, things are looking OK. Better from a distance than up close, because a few sections, like the summer and winter squash, are quite severely in the weeds and in need of … Read the rest

20 Feb 20091 Jul 2008 by Mike (tfb)

This pic reminds me of those “classic” Big Agriculture photos where a row of combine harvesters rolls up a field in impressive staggered formation, except, here it’s Mel (first day!), Lynn and Raechelle, not machines! Hand-weeding mainly pigweed from between … Read the rest

Pick your own CSA share pick-up

26 Sep 200829 Jun 2008 by Mike (tfb)

CSA shareholders coming to the farm this year are encouraged to harvest as much of their share as they feel like! Here, it’s sorting through mesclun and spinach on the screen table, removing bad leaves and the odd weed, before … Read the rest

Rainy day market

11 Jul 200828 Jun 2008 by Mike (tfb)

Rain, rain, go away… Not something you’d actually hear me say, or even think, lightly. This morning’s market didn’t quite qualify, although it rained heavily and steadily for the first three hours. Rain at the market has never been too … Read the rest
