Week 18 

We saw a few of you while making squash runs last Thursday.  We had hoped the air would be a little better but with rain in the forecast for Friday we decided to push and try to get some winter squash out of the field and into the barn.  Most of the plants had died back.  Kabocha and sweet fall, both with soft corky stems were the top priority.  Then we went for the delicata, acorn and spaghetti.  The only squash in the field still is a patch of butternut at our house.  The plants are still alive and with no frost in the forecast it isn't too pressing.  You will have some squash in your shares next week - delicata I think.  

Broccoli or Purple Sprouting Broccoli

Salad Turnips 

Bell Peppers

Cherry Tomatoes  - the Friday down pour took a toll on our cherry tomatoes and the forecast for the end of the week spells doom for our field cherries but we think we can get on last round to you all. 

Cucumber - last call for these too!

Garlic

Flat Leaf Parsley

Arugula - Large Only   Collards - Large Only  The caterpillar to arugula ratio was frightening so we did a last minute sub and switched it to collards.
