This Weeks Update 7/12/11

Our diligent
construction crew has been working hard on doors this week. As you can see the back door on tunnel #1 is now done!

Here you can see our small crop of alfalfa going in. We will be using this for a cover crop/green manure.

The veggies in the field are getting close to harvest time! Here are beans with lots of blossoms, cabbage and broccoli.

Peas loaded with blossoms!

And our first few pods coming in to!

Here you can see our field peas coming in nicley and our rows of corn growing slowly but surely!

In tunnel #1 we are about to harvest the first batch of gherkin cukes! This is the first time any of us have grown them and we are looking forward to trying these little fuzzy cukes in a pickle recipe soon!

And lastly this week was our first harvest of beet greens! Yum!!
