Week 5

This morning we walked around and checked in on some things that we suspected should be close to harvest.  We uncovered the cauliflower this morning in hopes that it might be ready for this week's CSA, but it is still a week or two out.  Field cucumbers should start picking tomorrow and the zucchini is finally taking off and looking nice.  We also have a new variety of chard that we hope to put in your boxes next week.  The rainbow chard is pretty, but I am on the lookout for one whose flavor leans a bit more towards spinach. 

This morning when we went to load cabbage out of the walk-in at the house the temperature was reading 26 degrees.  It doesn't look like we lost any cabbage, but I am not sure what the situation will be tomorrow.  If it is freezing we will turn it off before we load it, which will keep everything cool enough.  Fortunately we just got a larger walk-in at the farm up and running this week and the older small walk-in is also still running so the cabbage has a place to go while we sort the situation out.  Don't be concerned if the walk-in is turned off. 

 Happy Eating!
