Almost time to open at South Windsor Farmers Market!

Happy to be back at on this beautiful Wednesday!

Cukes in the greenhouse are completely covered with ladybugs in all stages of development

Lots of Dr. Seuss's favorite vegetable picked for tomorrow -- come get your scapes at Wednesday at 4:30!

So exciting when all the pasture trees leaf out in the spring!

Hauling daffs to the cooler on my favorite farm vehicle

This year's garlic beds are picking up steam...

First duck eggs of the year and as usual they ignored all the nice clean dry shavings and dug them into the muddiest corner they could find

Starting to harden our first batch of fava beans and hoping they can survive the hungry bunnies this year 🤞

Nothing beats half frozen persimmons off the tree on a fall morning

Made a new friend while planting winter rye this morning

Cleaning out the moveable greenhouse for fall canning projects before we hoist the greenhouse to its position for next year!

Last flowers of the year are up on the stand...

The last of our six fields, finally free of stumps and planted to a winter rye cover crop. Pasture next year and melons in 2025!

Unexpected beehive resident...

Just a couple weeks away from season's for us but we still have plenty of veg and flowers at the stand!

First persimmons starting to ripen!

Hauling in winter squash to cure!

The geese helping prepare next year's melon patch, mowing down this year's cover crop

If you fuel your skid steer on bike, does it count as a hybrid vehicle?

Set up on time for market start for maybe the first time this season

Of all the new flowers we have trialed this year, hyacinth bean is our favorite. It is like Prince became a plant!
