farm tour: week 13, oops, July

Howdy Long Lost Internet!

We've had a busy month on the farm! Harvesting has become an all-day activity on Fridays and Wednesdays, and the Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays are full of storing, planting, seeding (fall crops already!) and some cultivation. WWOOFers (world-wide workers on organic farms) have come to the farm to volunteer, so teaching them some of the farm tasks and keeping everyone clean, fed, and happy has also been on the docket this month. Have a look!

All the spring crops have been harvested, drip irrigation rolled up, and field tilled for cover crops:

  1. Yay!! SO great to see what you are doing, growing, thinking about! The flowers look lush and lovely, and the mushroom process is fascinating! Would love to see a post just on that topic--
