Good day, All. I hope you are well.
I spoke with Levi early this morning, and I have a quick update on the farm and the crops:
--Asparagus, lettuces, spinach, and radishes are coming in strong and will be the first crops delivered when we start up. The cold weather earlier has slowed things a bit, and Levi says it would be nice to get a good shower to push them up a touch.
--There will be a strawberry crop, but it won't be as strong as last year. Levi shared again how the cold weather earlier has affected this crop. See the video below for pictures of the strawberries in bloom. Notice the flowers with black spots that won't produce berries. These were blooms that started prior to the cold spell. Even so, there will be strawberries.
--Peas are doing quite well! Levi says that it's not going to be a bumper crop but that it will be stronger than the last couple of years.
--Our first delivery is scheduled for May 19 and will likely consist of lettuces, spinach, asparagus, and radishes. There is some possibility that the first delivery is pushed back to May 26 if we don't get some rain to push the early crops on.
Keep your eye on this blog and on emails from the coordinating committee for frequent updates.
