Week 10 7-20-10 and 7-23-10

News from the Farm

We made it back from MN with the newlywed Bobby. The wedding was beautiful!

The garden, however, missed us dearly. We have been working hard to get all the tomatoes out of the field and preparing ground to put in the fall garden. The seedlings for the garden look great.
The pickling cukes are full of flowers and baby cukes; so get your pickling stuff together if you are planning to can some pickles. (Grant, this is for you!)

We hope all is well and you have a great week!
Take care,
Anne and Adam
