Ten years ago Kelly and I had a very small wedding in our back yard. At the time we thought getting married in August would be a good excuse to step back each year and take a moment for ourselves. Kelly even wrote it in his vows. Well, we had good intentions, but each year the day comes and goes like every other day in August. This year we spent the day together at the UDistrict market, but we did make a point of doing some fun things this week. Ten years seemed like we should make a little extra effort. Here we are in mid August with the days getting shorter and summer slipping away. I hope you all are making the most of summer before it is gone.
We should have some green beans next week!

Was three weeks of potatoes one too many? I originally had carrots in my plan for last week but then the purple potatoes just looked and tasted so good I switched it up. I would like to think our potatoes will continue to look good, but I am 90 percent certain they will never look or taste better than they do now.
The farm is humming right along and we are in full August mode. Hope to have some slicing tomatoes in your boxes soon.
