A Season of Fun and Joy!
True to our name "Freshly Doug Vegetables," our produce was harvested from our gardens in the morning and in the stand for sale within an hour or two. We did have some trouble figuring out if the corn was ripe or not - but, we eventually figured it out! Duh????!!!! |
| Looking west at the produce stand. Both stock tanks were planted with free samples of edible flowers, (nasturtiums). The right stock tank was planted with a variety of cherry tomatoes and the left tank was planted with basil. Ripe, right off the vine! |
We have begun preparing for next season. Cover crop has been planted. As you may or may not know cover crop adds organic matter, nitrogen and protects the soil through the winter. Raised beds have also been planted with cover crop, except for the one where we will be planting garlic this month. We will be picking up all of the hoses and markers from the two main gardens. During the winter months, we will be selecting and ordering a wide variety of favorite, heirloom seed, staging planting from greenhouse to garden, building four more raised beds, bringing the total to 12. And, looking forward to spring!
As a beautiful season comes to an end, at dusk on October 18, 2019, Doug and I are grateful to the many people who stopped by to support our efforts to grow high quality, reasonably priced, organic produce. You rock! Thank you! Hugs and make it a great day!
