Some Numbers

GH4 is one of the few spaces here at the farm where the transformation has begun. After a season full of cherry tomatoes, we have begun to remove plants, and prep the greenhouse for some fall Lettuce Mix. As we adjust from season to season and year to year have been refining what we grow, working to go into the fall with as many greens as possible with the goal of providing Lettuce and Spinach right into the holiday season. If the weather behaves (whatever that means) we believe we can succeed. In the greenhouse we have more control over the elements and can and will cover as needed to add that extra protection.

GH4 cherry tomatoes when they first went in the ground….see the snow out the right hand side?!

GH4 as of Saturday September 13th

Jav with the help of others spent time on Saturday and Sunday working on removing tomato plants from GH4. After harvesting the cherries, tomato clips are removed, then strings and hooks from the trellising system and finally the tomato plants will be pulled out of the greenhouse. WE fold up fabric and sanitize to use again next year and irrigation is also saved. Once all of that is complete, we will amend the beds and prep for direct seeded lettuce and baby lettuce heads.

We have apples now in our farm stand from Tellman Hill Farm in Whitefield. It is the time of year to break out the pie plates, and these local apples are excellent for those sweet treats or just eating fresh.

Learn more about who they are and their hours here. We are psyched to be able to carry their apples.

Pickup

Come anytime between 3 pm and 6 pm to choose your share on the day you chose when you signed up, so either Monday or Thursday.

Please bring your own bags or box to gather your choices.

If you signed up for an add-on, don’t forget to pickup your Coffee, Flowers, Eggs, and Pork sausage.

 Remember to contact us in advance if you will be unable to pick up on Thursday, so that we can store your share in our walk-in refrigerator to keep it fresh. You can email or call us to let us know. Thank you to all of those who have already arranged another time to pickup!

Woodland Community School, who shares the same address as us, is back in session. Please be careful of kids and parents as you enter and exit the farm for pickup!

We have run out of MSF Potatoes (we literally grew new potatoes just for you our CSA) and are now bringing in Sparrow Arc farm potatoes. They are local out of VT and are not organic. They limit spraying, and grow as naturally as they can.

Lyman View corn is also from off the farm. Dick has been as central part of the Littleton Farmers Market and phenomenal corn growing in the local area for 30 years. He is not organic.

Pounds of Basil ($15/lb) and flats of B-grade tomatoes and or Roma Tomatoes($30/15 lb flat) are available as supplies last. Let us know and we can have them ready for you to pickup on your CSA day. Email us to reserve yours!
