This past week on the farm has been a relaxing week. We had brief periods of rain shower's for 4-5 days. Working in between the storms with our Farmers Market cancelled last week due to the storms.
Today we got all our order picked and our CSA's done. Tomorrow is Kaiser's Farmers Market should be a good day, weather forecast is a nice one. We have a total of 28 items we are currently harvesting. Not bad since its already December.
Today we had our CCOF inspection, it went well. This year we had a new inspector. Took her 2 hours to go over all of our paper work, and inspecting the farm. She enjoyed going out into our field and seeing how we operate.
This is the time of year we start our transplants in the hoop house for springtime. Fennel, Chards, Kale, Broccoli, Cabbage, Chives, Lettuce and Mixed Herbs. In January we will start with Tomatoes' Peppers, and Eggplant.
I am new to blogging, not sure if anyone will even see this. But if you do, we thank you for taking of your time to read our farming blog. I hope to start blogging every week. I will post recipes and pictures of the farm. Can I get some feedback on my blogging. Thanks Mike
