Rain! It rained!

Earthworks received a blessed 2.3" of rain last night and into this morning. We really needed that. Sadly, I can hear the weeds growing here at my desk......1.5 miles away. Only thing left to plant is 2 types of winter squash and re-sowing sunflowers & greens. Hopefully this year we will have produce all season long at our field location, weather....specifically rain cooperating. What do we sell besides plants, bouquets and bakery? Lettuce, mesclun mix, spinach, sugar snap peas, green beans, sweetcorn, peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, beets, tomatoes, raspberries, strawberries, cantaloupes & specialty melons, watermelon, summer and winter squashes, pumpkins, 8 types of dried beans for soups, dried bunches of flowers, broom corn, humongous sunflower heads for the birds. It's good to be diversified when you can. The challenge is each plant family has it's own insect/disease and cultural differences.
