Greens from the Garden

11 Bunches of Turnip Greens Harvested on Wednesday

11 Families Thrilled to Take Turnip Greens Home for Supper



August Arrives

The recent abundance of rain has encouraged our weedy friends to multiply; so if you have any time to spare in the early morning hours, drop by and remove a few weeds. The peas and tomatoes will be most appreciative.  The heat and humidity have not dampened the spirits of our dedicated gardeners.  There are 12 or so new raised beds where the pole beans once stood.  These beds have been planted with turnip & mustard greens, bush beans and winter squash.  Most of the yellow squash has succumbed to the summer's heat and those beds are being prepared to welcome some fall crops.  Our sweet potates are being harvested and there is a new crop of peas overflowing the beds that once housed the new potatoes.  Oh yes, there are bee hives, too and a wide variety of graceful sunflowers standing guard on the garden's east boundary. 

Come out and give us a hand!
