Harvests pick ups are winding down for this season, in the next few weeks I will be evaluating what is left in the ground for some extra pick up days at a nominal fee. Our mild fall, so far, has allowed many items to continue to grow for many more weeks of harvesting. Let me know if you would like a list of what is left at the end of October, if you are interested in getting a bit more for your foodie needs.
Now is the time, too, where row clean ups, mowing, soil amending and cover cropping commences as well as preliminary seed starting for early plantings at the end of the winter phase. I will also be putting together 2011 contracts for early sign up incentives for those of you who would like to help support this Farmerette get ready for next year. I will be implementing some additional row tunnels, ground cloth for sure as it just was too iffy this year to take another chance at the lack of "tomoatoship" the microclimates offered me at my farming location in Brush Prarie. I would like to thank many of my returning subscribers for giving me the heads up they are ready to sign up for next season. I am thankful they have understood the seasonal eating and working with mother nature aspect that my CSA farm encompasses.
Have a great October!
