Most of the main garden is planted and the mulching done. We have the last planting of sweet corn to be transplanted when the plants are big enough. We seeded the fall cauliflower and broccoli today in the greenhouse as well as our weekly planting of head lettuce.

Jonathan used our sub soil tooth to go down the field where our Christmas trees used to be to drag out remaining stumps. He is responsible for plowing the field, planting a cover crop and preparing the ground to be our garden area in 2010. Each of the apprentices have one field to look after during this season.

This week for the pick-ups we plan to have:
lettuce or mesclun
green onions
radishes
spinach
baby beets
Hakurei (mild, white summer turnip that you can eat raw or cook )
rhubarb
herbs
Maybe a few snow peas

The strawberries are starting to ripen and we should have some for next week. We need some nice warm weather to bring them along.
