Heavy thunderstorms yesterday dropped three inches of rain on the farm in a short time, and came with some ferocious winds as well. This just as some of our late summer crops were poised to bounce back. We were anticipating a fuller crop of tomatoes and peppers, and looking forward to picking the first of our fall beans. Nothing's dead, done, or gone, just set back another week or so. This summer's been all one step forward, two steps back. Ahh ... farming.
We do have a nice variety of early fall greens this week! Plenty of lettuce and arugula, baby chard and tatsoi. All of the greens are looking lush and full after the rain. Dark green 'Shiro' baby bok choy are a perfect single-serving size (about 1/2 pound each). Heaps of radishes this week!
