New Field Farm – Temple, New Hampshire

Carrots, garlic and potatoes

Greetings,

I was out checking on the crops this morning in a coat and wool hat. Quite the cool down, but good to get the rain.

If you want blueberries please get your order in by Thursday morning at the latest so we have time to pick (weather permitting). And as usual, it’s helpful to have all orders in by then, with or without blueberries.

U-pick blueberries continue Wed. to Sun. 8-5.

We’re going to start digging carrots and red potatoes this week, as well as begin to pull the garlic.

We have a bit of a lettuce gap this week and the cool weather and the ageing of the first planting slows down the squash so not so much of that.

A second planting of cukes and squash are coming along, and more beets went in this weekend. Curly and lacinato kale, cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage, red and green, were set out from the greenhouse in the last week or so. Spinach and baby bok choy will be sown in the field soon. We have some tall, robust looking brussel sprout plants and the Hawaiian ginger is finally beginning to look somewhat big and tropical.

Thanks as ever for your orders.

Tim
