Shirane Sky from the bottom & top. Lettuce came through the cold nights well enough. Should have heads into early November.

File under: Better Late Than Never… Fall > Spring CSA distributions start Friday October 23rd.

We posted info and registration on our website.

We have spots still available; if you’re interested in joining just reply to this post and let us know and we’ll include you in the count.

You can drop a registration form and check off at pick up tomorrow. Not sure arugula will be in the share tomorrow; yet will be in the mix in November.

Lady bug at harvest this morning.

Seasons are changing… back to back freezes have ended our season for basil, beans (pictured here), tomatoes, zucchini, etc.

A productive growing season for our summer crops overall. Fall crops are still going strong and we’ll continue to have a selection of cold hardy crops at the stand through mid November. We have limited harvests of daikon radishes & Napa cabbage available for another week or so… they’re in a field we haven’t fenced and the deer are munching on both of them , so a long harvest window isn’t guaranteed.

Currently expecting Nov 22nd to be our final official day for 2026; while The King Farm will continue to be open year round!

Kale season is well underway; and these brassica greens will get even sweeter with the cold nights in the forecast.

We are currently harvesting curly kale (Starbor or Winterbor depending on the day) and Red Russian Kale. Toscano Kale should work into the rotation later in the month as well.

Farmstand will be open daily through November 22nd, and then we may feature a few bonus pop up days before the King Farm moves into the blue shed for the deep winter sometime in December.

It’s the season for spice > we have four successions of arugula planted this fall and are currently harvesting planting number two.

Each should give us 2-3 cuts before fading out or going to seed.

We don’t target a baby leaf; rather we harvest a more robust larger leaf with a sweet stem. Size, spice, and heat will vary depending on which succession we are harvesting and what stage of growth it is at when cut.

Pretty much shifted all of our arugula plantings over to Esmee at this point.

Have a succession ready to plant in one of the fieldhouse next week and a final seeding in greenhouse to seed next week. We elect to use transplants for these fieldhouse crops cause it allows us to push whatever summer crop is in the house to the end before jumping in with starts rather than seeds.

3 seeds/cell in 128s - only works if you transplant young and don’t mind a mature leaf. Would definitely not work if we were growing baby leaf. Leave that to the mechanized operations with scale.

Rotating back into our second & final planting of Gatsbi Little Gem for the next week or so; think these guys have earned a spot in our fall rotations going forward. Better size than Newham fits our production better.

We trialed at 6”, 9”, & 1’ in row spacing to see how space impacted their growth, harvest, and field holding capacity.

Think 9” is the sweet spot for us. Though on 3 rows per bed they definitely got pretty dirty from our September nor’easter.

Frost tonight? Definitely the right conditions as winds die down, low dew points, and radiational cooling allows temps to dive.

Might be the end of our brilliant basil season; though we may spend some time covering a few frost sensitive beds this afternoon… tbd.

This is right in target for our average first frost here on the Southcoast which is usually first week of October give or take a week.

We’ll probably prioritize covering our late October lettuce crop to extend the harvest season on heads.

Fall > Spring CSA registration info is coming this wed/thur with our first distribution next week, on Friday October 16th.

Seasons are changing…

Beautiful harvest morning & we have heaps of fall veggies available at the farmstand. Highlights include fall kale starting to sweeten up, top notch radishes in abundance, pinto gold potatoes, full flavor (aka Bold) arugula, & a few other surprises…

Still drying out from last week’s nor’easter; today’s sunshine and lower dew points will definitely help.

Took the canopies down for the stand tonight; heaps of veggies stacked in the farmstand for folks seeking some crunch & flavor on Saturday. We’ll be open all weekend; managed to spend most of today harvesting an abundance for you.

Yum.

09/23/2026

Lettuce mix on the horizon… might show up this week; definitely will sometime next week. Heads are growing well this fall as well; abundance of lettuce 2026 continues.

Panisse back this Wed or Thursday for the Panisse lovers.
