Tomatoes forever. Photo by Scott David Gordon.
"Overabundance is the theme at the farm right now," as our Farm Manager, Becky Hume, said earlier in the week, "and tomatoes are the bell of the ball." With the past two years of massive crop losses, we are being graced with a mild and wonderful season. We have so much produce as of right now, our coolers are packed in both locations. Cucumber, onion, okra, and zucchini harvests are mammoth! We've recently converted one of our greenhouses into an onion curing facility... it works as a low temperature oven so that the onion's exterior gets nice and papery. On top of that, our sweet potatoes are on the way. It's quite a laborious process, but our volunteers have been quite helpful with getting the splits in the ground so that we can enjoy these 'taters later in the season!
