What a wonderfully hot day. Nicole and Lydia are here finishing off the beans. We had the "girl power" crew at it today. Sarah, Leah, Kayla, Lydia, Nicole and harvested a pile of beans. Purple, Green and Yellow. The yellow beans are not quite ready yet. The farm is beginning to feel the real weed pressure now. With all of the rain and the difficulty in cultivating with wet soil the weeds are catching up.
Gerald and Louise are just heading off for their break. Louise has been bunching radish and Gerald harvesting.
Today we have the plumber here to get the sink hooked up in the new kitchen. I can not wait to be down there cooking, canning, freezing away food for the winter. It will be so nice to get it out of my own kitchen.....last week we stewed 3 trays of sweet cherries that had split from the rain. I made 50 bottles of sweet cherry conserve and had double that left to do frozen in the freezer.
Other news - there is a lot happening here but no much to report on. The crops are growing well. The weather is good today and now I must focus and get a newsletter done for tomorrow.
Enjoy the day!
Welcome to Taproot!
