Heritage Hill Farm Update

Lately, I have been a crazy person.

Between the rain and the cooler overnight temperatures, it has been a slow start at the farm compared to last year. We were able to plant the cool season crops (broccoli, cabbage, kohlrabi, peas, lettuce, potatoes, and much more) and they are all doing well.

Last night, we had to move out tomatoes and peppers inside because of the lows in the 30's. And get this, tomorrow it is going to be in the 90's. What in the world!?

This week our plan is to get everything in the ground and watch it grow, while hopefully catching some lucky breaks with rains (that is after our planting is complete- that's not asking for too much, right?). Soon enough we will be harvesting and cooking up a storm.

Here are some shots from around the farm.
Enjoy!
