Greetings garden friends,
Yesterday was a beautiful and busy day in the garden. I harvested lettuce, spinach and carrots for the cafeteria in the morning and Petra harvested kale and chard for a tender and delicious salad we enjoyed in the afternoon. (The
secret is massaging the greens with the dressing.... it relaxes them) We finished up grafting the fruit trees and Anthony weeded one of the big flowers beds. The highschoolers all checked to see what they needed to do with their
beds and made plans for what's next. Jake enjoyed eating a beet he grew and Eljio and Nathan harvested cabbages.
For the farm stand tomorrow we will have head lettuce and salad mix, carrots, parsley, cilantro, kale, chard, and maybe some sunchokes and jacon from Sean's bed. In the nursery we have alyssum plants, assorted succulents, and tulips in pots getting ready to bloom. 3:30-5:00. Volunteer workday is Friday 1:00-5:00 and all are welcome.
This week the gardeners are winning and the gophers are confused.
