Frosty morning

I was expecting a chance of frost this morning but not at 39 degrees.  We were a little late getting our system up and running so we may have some loss.  Here’s what things looked like at 7:30 this morning.

Spring on the farm

The strawberries blossoms are peaking this week!  The field is beautiful.  We are anxiously watching the weather, hoping the hail misses us and there is no frost Tuesday morning. 

Strawberry progress

The strawberry plants came through the winter snows doing well and have commenced growing with the best looking plants we’ve had in years.   Look how big and healthy they look already and still 5-6 weeks to go  until they begin bearing fruit.  We haven’t even fertilized them yet.

Eagle visits the farm

Eagle landing

Winter has been hard on everyone.  Last week we spotted this eagle searching for a drink of water.

Purple Hull Peas

Our second crop of purple hull peas are in.  If you know you have an order in and haven’t heard from us, give us a call to confirm your order.  Thanks, and we look forward to seeing everyone out for our rapidly approaching fall season.
