This week's farm news:

Greetings again, y'all! Well, the winter is upon us now. We've had some pretty cold nights but fortunately not cold enough to kill everything in the garden...yet! Sounds like it's supposed to be really cold really soon! Eric has been working on our high tunnel (unheated greenhouse) for our future winter gardens every chance he gets. It's getting really close to being done! We've still got plants in our greenhouse to plant into the tunnel but at this point they wouldn't be ready to harvest until early spring. So who knows? Maybe we'll get an extra early start next spring! On that note, we should have next season's updated sign-up form available on our website soon. As always, we offer a discount if you sign up early!

We plan to bring vegetables again next Saturday (Dec. 12) for anyone that is interested. So come & see us next Saturday to get stocked up!
