Harvest and Market

Another day that was rainy and cold; it is the middle of June and I was wearing a sweatshirt all day.  I don't know if the sky knows how much I like the sun and I would appreciate a little summer before winter starts again.  No matter what the weather is doing, the vegetables have to be picked...
Now we need to bag it all up...
Getting ready for Thursdays CSA pickup is usually a little hectic but now that we are also getting ready for the farmers market makes it is a lot crazier.  The farmers market is so much fun for me, I get to talk to new people about local organic food, which is something I am very passionate, all day long.  The people of Walker are really starting to embrace the farmers market and it is exciting to watch it grow and change. 
All the storms we have been having, have left some unfortunate marks on the farm.
The winds blew this tree across the electric fence
The rain has pummeled the Poppies and Iris'

The rain has also had some positive effects...everything is growing.

APPLES!!!
Purple basil poking through
6 more kinds of lettuce
