The market is open!
The market is open. Today we had our first freeze of the season. What does that mean for your produce, nothing right now. It was a very light freeze and everything in the high tunnels is going to be just fine. When we start seeing freezing weather, you will start to taste the difference. The produce will start to taste sweeter.
There are several items that are available for the first time this year. Napa Cabbage, Yellow Turnips, Green onions, orange carrots, purple carrots, and spinach. The first winter market in Manhattan is this week, November 7th. So deliveries to MHK will be to the winter market in Pottorf Hall. We will do deliveries to Clay Center and Wakefield on Tuesdays as usual.
We will then deliver to Manhattan again on Wednesday November 11 and 25th, then to the winter markets on the 7th and 21st.
I will get out a schedule for the rest of the season soon.
Orders are due by Saturday at 10:00.
Thanks,
Jay
