Freshman Farmer | New Organic Farms Set Roots

Hello

Just wanted to say hi. The farmers’ market went well today. We keep selling out of food, so that is a good thing. I am so happy that our Saturday Morning Market is so well attended. The people are great - the other growers, shoppers - they are all happy to be a part of the market. And so are we.

I think the big hit this week was a toss up: the spring mix, or the lettuce mix. The spring mix has mixed leafy-brassicas - tat soi, arugula, kale, big mustards, mizuna. The lettuce is only that and it is quite tasty.

The farm looks good. I started digging up garlic this afternoon, and am going to give green garlic to our CSA members. It will all come out of the ground by the end of next week.

much love,

andrew

Three farms are starting from scratch.

They are turning the dirt and hoping to be successful enough to turn a profit, and to become a valuable part of their communities as suppliers of organically grown food.

Peaceful Valley is giving them a head start by offering them special pricing as part of this Freshman Farmer program.
