Happy Summer everyone! It has definitely come on with a force of windy, hot, humid weather. We are lucky to have been hit with multiple thunderstorms over the past few weeks, meaning we have good moisture in the ground and most Summer crops are well established. The continuous bouts of rain have also meant incredibly healthy weed infestations, so with the untrained eye, most of our Spring crop fields look like fields of wild weeds. We are making an effort this week and next to bulk out lots of carrots and beets  as well as to get the last of our onions out of the ground and curing in our barn, before they all rot from the hot wet conditions. Our hope is that we can continue to provide you some roots throughout the summer. Our greens are winding down and soon enough will be replaced by green beans, eggplant, and tomatoes, so enjoy the little bits you get this week. Summer is here, we hope you are ready. Spend lots of time this week in the water and eat lots of hydrating food like cucumbers to keep you cool. Check the recipes below and enjoy the share…. Autumn & Brian
