FIELD NOTES
Can you believe it's week six already? A quarter of the way through! So, how is it going? Are you using up your share? Are you enjoying it? Have you experimented with something new? Have a new favorite vegetable? We want to know! Message us at bardwellfarm@gmail.com and let us know how we are doing.

The rains have certainly move things along. Our short-day sweet corn is almost there, the tomatoes are getting big and plump, peppers are huge, and the eggplant is beginning to pop! Believe it or not, the pumpkins are beginning to push through the soil too. It's been an amazing season so far and we are looking forward to all of these :)

This week we have beautiful heads of New Fire Red & Green Star Leaf Lettuce, colorful swiss chard and mixed beets, lots of pickling cucumbers, Patriot Blueberries from Sobieski's, and herbs from Harvest Valley Farm.

Enjoy folks!
