Update from the Gardens

This week has been a mix of some of our last big plantings of the season, crop maintenance, and pest control. We planted our heat loving crops in the hoop houses and the sweet potatoes, cucumbers, melons, and ginger have really taken well to this summer weather we’ve been having. This weather has been great for cultivating in all the gardens and staying ahead of the weed parade. The potato beetle showed up with force on our eggplant, and the cucumber beetle showed up with force on our tomatillos. A ground hog here, a rabbit there, and they all seem to be saying, “Let the Games Begin!”
