Despite the chilly northwest spring we had this year, our veggies grew! The GRuB farm is now teeming with beautiful veggies. Our first harvest took place on Friday June 17th. We harvested over 40lbs of Kale, broccoli, lettuce, turnips, green onions, squash blossoms, broccoli greens, strawberries and various herbs. That afternoon our CSA boxes were packed and ready to go for our 15 CSA members to enjoy. Since then, we have continued to harvest every Tuesday and Friday and the harvest list keeps getting longer and longer! On the right you can see a fresh picked Champion red radish which made its way onto the table of our first Market Stand! Summer squash grew at a remarkable rate in the past week growing an inch or 2 every day! Every day I find new and exciting discoveries on the farm. New broccoli heads one day, peas forming the next! It is certainly an exciting and delicious time on the farm! Saturday, June 25, 2011
