This year has been a challenge for the garden with the excessive rain we've been getting.
The lettuces are done for the season, but we do still have some kale producing (think kale chips, salads and soups) and the yellow squash and zucchini are starting to produce now which means we also will have some zucchini bread as they produce more than we are able to sell or eat ourselves.
Our beans have not been producing well with the wet weather. Cucumbers and melons are growing but more slowly than normal and some of the second plantings are failing to grow, likely from the wet conditions. We will not be at the market some days if there just isn't enough of a harvest to be worthwhile, our time will be better spent preparing our Fall garden.
Upcoming market dates:
- Saturday 29-Jun-2019 Paris, TX
- Wednesday 26-Jun-2019 Hugo, OK (Tentetive depending on harvest)
Current harvest:
- Red Russian kale Heirloom variety. Tender, mild, velvety, great flavor.
- Curly kale Sweet, crisp, gentle nutty flavor. Excellent in soups or salads.
- White Bermuda onions Heirloom variety. Mild flavor, great as a green onion, in soups, stews and pickling.
- Texas Legend onions Larger, great in salads, on burgers, etc.
- Copenhagen cabbage Makes great cole slaw.
All produce is grown right here on our farm in "way north" Honey Grove.
We DO NOT resell any produce.
