New Field Farm's Online Market:  onions and more


Greetings,

Please note: I’m still hobbling around with a bad foot so it would be helpful once again if you could order by Wednesday night. But if you don’t, Thursday will work as usual.

We’re now harvesting Ailsa Craig and Tropea onions, as well as the first field tomatoes (if they don’t split in all this rain!). We’re also adding Banana fingerling potatoes

Both greenhouse and field tomatoes are now $3.00/lb.

For various reasons we’re still in a salad mix lull.

So far the basil has avoided the basil downy mildew and the second planting looks nice. It’s a somewhat smaller variety called Eleonora that is supposed to maybe, kinda have some resistance to the disease. But the first planting is free of the disease so I think it’s just luck so far.

The squash is also a bit sluggish, but there should be enough of one kind or another.

The second planting of cucumbers is slowing down prematurely. We should have enough for this week, but then who knows. There is a third planting and if summer returns we may get more in September.

Spinach and Bok Choy have been planted, and we continue to sow and set out lettuce.

Last night I chased a porcupine out of the cabbage and broccoli, but failed to catch him. Maybe tonight.

Thank you for your orders.

Lamb special still on this week, 25% off. Please place orders for your fall lamb soon.

Cami is doing cabbage rolls and quiches on a regular basis now.

We have tomatoes in varieties to wonder at: the cherry type in yellow, orange and red; slicing tomatoes, romas, and heirloom beefsteak, the kind we eat with bacon and mayo! Lots of basil too.

Bush beans are now in harvest: yellow, purple and green.

Special on Chard: free bunch with every order! Three varieties: Rainbow, Fordhook and Perpetual Green.

I have a Facebook page to repost really cool news and information, especially about permaculture, climate disruption, peak energy and now the Election. It’s going to be A LONG 11 WEEK CAMPAIGN. Maybe the real stories will get out, not just the posturing and propaganda. Yes I’m voting NDP.

I got one reply so far on the Local Food Challenge, so I encourage you to review last week’s post or go here for the scoop. http://www.resilience.org/stories/2015-08-05/talking-resilience-with-vicki-robin.
