Back to back harvests

 IT'S ON!!

Picking time has officially arrived as you can see from the pictures below. Squash, zucchini, eggplant and cucumbers are in abundance. Sunday, we picked another 15 beautiful zucchini (think Zucchini Bread) and 12 squash. Today, there were 9 more zukes and 6 more squash along with our first eggplants and lemon cucumbers. 

Definitely will have this produce at next week's markets.

But during the week we will enjoy roasted vegetables, vegetable frittata, and of course our favorite homemade vegetable pizza.

Waiting patiently

That's the name of the game for the next week or two.

Our vegetables and produce look great and are growing at a fast pace but we must keep reminding ourselves to be patient. The cucumbers, zucchini  and peppers should be ready next week but then we are optimists. Radishes and carrots are ready now though.

Interesting first market

 We had an interesting first market weather wise in Forsyth Friday. Started out with a chance of severe weather after lunch but it arrived much earlier. Rain from 9:30-11:00 but at least it was only rain nothing severe. Still time for a great market. However, the winds picked up and stayed with us the remainder of the day. It made for an interesting day, selling product and holding  on to the tent to prevent it from blowing away. We were also excited to see so many of our regular customers come by to check out our products.

We are looking forward to next Friday and hopefully a calmer weather pattern.

Zucchini pizza for supper- YUMMY!
