Rainy Weather

Well it's the second week in a row that we have been harvesting in the rain. I don't really mind working in the rain as long as its not too cold. I will say the most important thing is a good pair of rain boots. If your feet get wet it's all down hill from there. 
It's CSA day and I thought I was all prepared but I popes over to our other farm quickly and saw that beans were ready so I spent an hour harvesting. I picked about 15 liters of beans but they are just starting so I think we will be having an excellent crop of beans this year. 

Check out the photos below to see what our shares looked like this week. 
Shares included: 
Beets
Turnips

Kohlrabi
Peas
Beans

Happy Canada Day

It's turning out to be a pretty nice day here at the farm. We are just about finished setting up for CSA ( we are early this week so people can enjoy the festivities being held across the city)
We hope that everyone enjoys this weeks basket as it is packed full with delicious vegetables. 


The table looks a little empty but we are not putting everything out to keep things as fresh as possible as people stop by the farm throughout the afternoon. 

If read the previous post this week about what might be going out this week I am pleased to say that it was all harvestable. We even harvested the first of the broccoli. 

I am planning on making a delicious cabbage , broccoli and radish slaw for supper tonight. Hopefully you all get to enjoy some delicious food as well!
