Hay days

Finishing up our haying this week. The beautiful September weather is making it much easier!
The farm is busy as usual, but the gardens are winding down a bit. The animals are enjoying the less humid weather (though it was pretty warm yesterday), and are spending more time during the day out grazing.
We are also organizing our Fall/Winter CSA share program.

Vegetables on the farm this week are:
carrots
tomatoes
kale
peppers, sweet
pole beans (Garden of Eden, Fortex, and Scarlet Runner)
zucchini
potatoes
lettuce heads (yay!)
onions
cucumbers
pickling cukes
garlic
lettuce mix
Health Kick Salad Blend (spicy mix)

Everyone, meet Buddy!

It's that time of year again

Yes, September. All the children are back in school (except the lucky homeschooled ones!), leaves are beginning to change, and harvest season is underway.  In the last week and a half we have begun our haying (which should have been done over a month ago).
