RVP-The market it open
This post expired on June 23, 2023.
I was checking email today and I was surprised that I wasn’t seeing any orders for this week. Then it dawned on me, well I never opened the market! I am sorry. With 3 playing ball on Thursday nights and then prepping for two markets on Friday, it just slipped my mind. We did sell at the Saturday market in Clay Center and in Manhattan. They were both good days, I just am not sure if we can keep it up all summer. I know we will try again next weekend too.
Farm news, the wind is still blowing and the rain still isn’t falling! Our tomatoes are close. We are picking cherry tomatoes now. I am hoping we will be able to pick some bigger tomatoes soon. With the heat and wind, I am sure it is possible by Saturday, not sure about Wednesday though.
We called it quits for the Kale and Chard. We have picked it down and it isn’t fairing all that well in the heat for me. We will have it again this fall, winter and next spring. 3 out of 4 months isn’t that bad!
I will give you some more time for orders, how about til 8pm. As I said earlier, sorry about that.
Thanks,
Jay
