CSA Week 6




We've been having some pretty warm weather lately!
The gardens are in desperate need of weeding, even though we spend hours in them weeding every day! We are thinking of having a weeding party next week; a select group of people come over and weed and then we feed them a lot of good food. I'd cook, of course, because I'm rather slow at weeding and I only weed with one hand (I just can't do the double-fisted thing).
We are baling round bales today.

The cherries, currents, and a few cherry tomatoes are ripening. We still have a few strawberries; we had a pretty good year with those! It's scape season again! The sugar snap and snow peas are producing very well; I picked at least 25 pounds of snow peas last week. The green beans are coming on, which is very exciting!
The sour cherries will need to be picked soon; that means cherry pie!
