We are as pleased as our CSA members to have beets, carrots, strawberries and sugar snap peas for the CSA pick-ups! The warm weather and rain have brought things along well.

Zeus, our 5 year old gelding, has gone to join Whinnie on a CSA farm in eastern Ontario. We sold Whinnie last fall. Jazz, a four year old mare, has joined the herd to replace Zeus and Ken is hoping she will fit in well. Chester, the stallion, will be arriving the first of July. Ken continues to build new fences around our pastures in anticipation of Chester’s arrival.

We have another round of sweet corn to transplant this week and we hope to finish the mulching of the peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers and melons. The cultivating and weeding of the garden went well last week. There is a bumper Strawberry crop this year. The patch will be open for CSA members to pick their own on Tuesdays and Saturdays during the CSA pick-up times from 11:00 am-7:00 pm. Bring your own containers.
