I am putting Strawberries out in the farmstand now! These berries are better size and so flavorful!

I will stay open until sold out or u til storms roll through

There are lots to be harvested although I am also trying to squeeze in one more planting job before the rain

May was such a FULL month. It went too fast, but also felt long and productive. I enjoyed spending a lot of time at both Somers Elem and Bose Elementary School working with students to grow their own school gardens and create beautiful outdoor learning spaces.
The month also included some field work with harvesting lovely Spring crops and of course planting the full spectrum of Summer produce.
Now I get to shift my attention a little bit and focus on creating fun experiences at my own Learning Farm. Chicken Camp is coming up quickly this month, with spots still available to register! I will also be putting out a date for Story Time. PLUS, how about that garden club I was so excited to start this year? I am still very intersted in getting a group together for monthly meet-ups, it just didn't happen in April or May as I planned.
Please watch for future posts will all the details on farm education opportunities for kids, families, and adults.

Yesterday and today's harvest was just the beginning of the strawberries. The berries were mostly small due to the few weeks of very dry weather. I am hopeful the rain and humidity came in time to continue a bountiful harvest!

I will post the next day that berries will be available ( I anticipate Wednesday or Thursday).

Are people still in need of tomato plants for their gardens? I have surplus!

Red round tomatoes: Mountain Fresh, Jolene, Brandywine
Paste types: Blue Beech and Cipolla

Reach out if you need any. I am going to work on getting some out by the farmstand for shopping also
I’m thinking $1 / plant or 6 for $5

I was asked some hard hitting questions by the 4K students at Somers elementary this week, and I thought I would address them here just in case anyone else is wondering the same…
Yes, I do have a home.
Yes, I do have a shower

The dirt on my hands, knees, and full body is applied fresh daily.
Thanks for your concerns!! 🤣

The strawberries got some much needed watering earlier this week. And let me just tell you… they are combing sooner rather than later! 🍓
