Chioggia Beets: beautiful and delicious.
On Friday mornings, we harvest food for the local pantry, Food For Fairview. Join us on Friday mornings during the summer. We start harvesting at 7:30. Here, Susan shows off some newly harvested carrots.
Harvests are becoming more diverse as the summer progresses. Scallions, onions, lettuce, potatoes, carrots, and beans are waiting to be loaded up and taken to the food pantry.
Sarah with a full truckload of fresh veggies… Beets, potatoes, carrots, kale, radish and lettuce!
After donating many bushels of lettuce and about have a bushel of radish from this raised bed, it’s time to prep it for the next crop: carrots! Blake begins tilthing while Taylor clears out remaining weeds and lettuce.
Building soil is crucial. The benefits really showed when we prepared this bed and found gorgeous, soft soil that was easy to work… A great improvement from clay and rocks!
Taylor hard at work. Notice the corn… It’s gettin’ big!
We love the garden!
