We’re just getting to our usual last frost date and after several frosts last week and a light one on Monday morning, it looks like we’re in the clear (fingers crossed.) And with freezing temperatures behind us, that means it’s time for summer planting to begin! Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be planting the tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and okra, as well as the first rounds of cucumber and zucchini and beans. The intense amount of bed prep followed by the huge influx of planting makes this one of our most hectic times of year.
In addition, last Sunday marked our first week back at the Shepherdstown market for the 2022 season. We’ll now be at Burke on Saturdays and Shepherdstown on Sundays every week well into the fall! Thank you for all of you who came out to support us in the rain last Saturday and at our first Shepherdstown market last Sunday. This week’s harvest list is below and we look forward to seeing everyone!
