I apologize for the recent farm photo dearth. July & August have kept us plenty busy, without much time for ‘extra’ blog posts or picture taking. Of course, this is also the season when there’s the most to document, so I’ve been trying to get in some shots when I can, including some of the ones here. We had friends stay with us recently, who also contributed some of these little pictures … Thanks, Gwen!
From upper left to lower right: 1. Green onions — harvested, washed & ready for pick-up at the CSA meeting site. 2. Our leeks, growing rapidly for harvest in fall & winter. Behind them: sunflowers & our tomato house. 3. Carrot abundance! One of our early big carrot harvests: 140 bunches for the CSA (2 bunches per share that week). 4. Kittens!!!!!!! 5. The beginning of our fall & winter brassica planting — cabbages, broccoli, & cauliflower — row-covered to protect the transplants from summer flea beetle pressure. 6. The gem of summer: Sungold cherry tomatoes! 7. Sunflower. 8. A late summer succession planting of beets & lettuces being irrigated. 9. One of our white rock pullets in the chicken yard. 10. Heirloom summer squashes: Costata Romanesco & yellow crookneck.
Looks beautiful!
lovely photos, your kitties are getting so big!
