Donated Seeds!
We are excited about a big box of donated seeds we received in the mail this week. They were sent to us from Diane Blazek at All America Selections (AAS).
It is always exciting to open a new box of seeds and think about all the plants they will produce. It is one of our favorite things! Donations are even more special. They are often unexpected and always make us very happy.
The AAS sent us wonderful seeds that will produce food for donations. The seed packets included corn, squashes, shallots, melons, and lots of tomatoes.
Thank you so much to Diane and AAS!
Winter greens in our hoop house
We have a nice row of greens growing in our hoop house. They might not grow much until the days get longer in February, but we are planning lots of harvest then. We have spinach, tatsoi, bok choi, lettuce, mustard greens, and beet greens. We’ll put an extra layer of cold protection, low hoops with fabric row cover, over them soon.

Our Field with White Row Covers and Red Sand Bags
It’s been chilly many nights in the past couple weeks. We have put out long rows of white covers to protect our leafy greens like tatsoi, bok choi, lettuce, arugula, and mustards. We have been harvesting and donating a nice box or two of mixed greens the past couple weeks.
