Week 20

Last one.  Kelly will tell you, we are stoked, that this is the day we have been waiting for for the last 20 weeks.  We have paid off our debt to you!  It always feels good to pay off a debt, but I am always a little sad to see it come to an end.  I like routines and I enjoy CSA days.

Storms are pretty stressful for people with greenhouses, piles of crates and lots of random stuff everywhere.  I think Kelly used enough concrete to build a nuclear reactor when we put the two larger houses in the ground, but still, I was relieved we didn't see more wind over the past few days.  Instead we had a little bit of much needed free time and a good reason to get organized.  Our house looks like human beings live in it again and the wood shop which also serves as dry storage for a lot of farm stuff is once again a wood shop and not just a giant table covered with random farm stuff.  We put lots of stuff away there when we don't know where else to put it, but it isn't actually put away, it is just out of the way.  Out of the way that is until you actually need to use the wood shop as a wood shop.  I hope none of you had any damage from the storm.

Lots of the fields have cover crop coming up and garlic should go in the ground in the next couple weeks.  Things are winding down.  Thank you for going along for the ride.  You were there for the hectic early months of transplanting,  the peak of harvest and now the slow decline.  Hopefully we took good care of you.
