Early Summer......

The high heat has really put an early end to a lot of the spring greens. The greens mix, spinach, turnips, arugula and some of the lettuces are beginning to bolt. But it also means we will have summer veggies early. The squash looks beautiful and has a lot of blossoms and tiny fruit. The potatoes are really good this spring...very smooth and buttery. The onions are so sweet and mild...no crying when you slice them!

The bee hives are coming back this week thanks to our beekeeper Jeff Friend! They have a lot of work to do. It's sad that the neighborhood bees have really dropped off in the last few years and we have to bring in extras to get everything pollinated.
