| We've started asparagus harvest, a little late, but with some of the recent warm temperatures, growth has increased and we're able to harvest some good quantities of crop. We will begin to harvest green buttercrunch lettuce around May 10th. The red and green romaine lettuce will be a little bit later. We have tomatoes and peppers planted in the high tunnels, and they are growing well. They are blooming so we've pruned and have begun to trellis the tomatoes. The onions, leeks, cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage are all out. The first sweet corn planting went into the ground on April 30. It's begun to sprout and we're counting on a good stand. We have pickled asparagus available. We also have asparagus "poppers" and asparagus guacamole available. The poppers are a little more spicy than the pickled asparagus. If you're not on our email contact list, please let us know and we'll add you. The members of our contact list recieve first notification as our crops mature. |
