Greetings from Farmer Dave!
The weather may be more mild, and even giving us rain here and there, but that doesn’t mean that your garden has to be dormant. Here’s a little update on the garden here at the Farm:
We are excited to see our first strawberries already formed – the plants so healthy this year, loving the rain and mild temps this fall.
The winter garden is pretty much planted – some items for the winter such as lettuce, broccoli, spinach, and peas.
Also, we’ve been busy planting crops now that will be harvested next June such as onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Even during Fall, there are always things to plant and plan for.
We cannot forget the yams we just harvested – we got about 90 pounds of yams from just 6 yams planted in April. Incredible!
And lastly, the cool wet days get us excited for some of the winter “chores” to come soon- pruning and planting new fruit trees. The fun never stops at the Farm! 🙂
As always, happy gardening!
