Garden News – June 26, 2017
After months of seed starting, transplanting, preparing and weeding, the garden is starting to strut her stuff! It has been a little challenging keeping up with Mother Nature’s whims, but things are looking quite nice out there.
I will have organic, free range eggs available this year. My friend Marlene, who lives on Independent Lane, has the best eggs I have ever tasted. She takes such good care of her girls. The eggs will sell for $4 per dozen. I will have 10-12 dozen the first week to see how they go. I don’t want her to bring more than I can sell for her. You can always call or email me and let me know if you want me to hold some for you, otherwise it will be first come, first serve!
I am excited to tell you that Bonnie Martinell from Boja Farms in Bridger is offering fruit, garlic and winter squash shares through Kate’s Garden as an additional service to you! I know how challenging it is to find organic fruit and produce that I may not grow, or grow enough of for preserving or storing for the winter. It is so important that small producers like Bonnie and I are allowed to continue doing what we do!
How Pick Up Days Work
I have divided the half share group into two parts, and some of you will pick up the first week, and the others on the second week. From then on, you will come every other week for the duration of the season. This makes it easier for me, as I will have the same # of boxes to prepare every week.
