The Ultimate Salad

We kicked off the 2014 season with what we call the "ultimate salad box".  The heads of romaine lettuce were harvested from the greenhouse.  Now the greenhouse will be planted with hot crops, likely peppers, that can withstand the daily above 100 degree temps in there.  We are so grateful for our "worker shares" Judith, Laurie and Desirae.  We have a lot of laughs and a great sit down lunch together on these days.
We are also thankful for Sunny Sky Farm, run by a long time farming friend of Craig's.  He has happily supplied us with rhubarb again this year to share with our members.  We expect that our rhubarb planting will be hearty enough next year to use our own but until then, we are happy to include his.
The season this year is right on track!  We had a long winter and a brief wet spring, but the soil is draining really well and the plants are all where they should be. Next box is planned for June 25th.
