Update from the Gardens

Warmer weather and a waxing moon means paste tomatoes are ripening and the pasture grasses are growing.  We've been canning tomato sauce for the winter and got to make a round of tomatillo salsa.  We are also cutting and hanging our strawflowers and statice to use later this autumn in dry flower arrangements and garlic swags.  As we think about putting food away for winter, we have also planted down new seeds in the hoophouse for later harvests of salad mix and arugula.
