Week 15: Lettuce Get This Tunnel Started

This is such an exciting week on the farm! Matt’s dad and uncle have officially arrived from New Mexico to help us build the tunnels, so things are about to get busy around here. And to finish out the week, we’re attending a farm to table dinner featuring several local vendors alongside our produce. We’ll be sure to share some of the fun on social media!

We’re also planning to keep the St. John Produce stand stocked with lots of fun produce this week, including salad mix, head lettuce, and other goodies from the online store.

It’s that time of year when there’s a little bit of everything happening on the farm. We’re hanging onto the last tastes of summer while welcoming in the first tastes of fall. It’s a pretty delicious time of year, so soak it all up while you can!

This week you’ll find:

• Herbs: cilantro, dill, and parsley

• Hearty greens: chard, collard greens, and white Russian kale

• Salad greens: head lettuce and arugula

• Roots: red radishes, multiple colors of beets, kohlrabi, and carrots

• Summer favorites: cherry tomatoes, sweet Italian frying peppers, and jalapeños

• Daily staples: garlic, candy onions, and scallions

Online Store

Please place your orders by Tuesday at 5pm for pickup later this week.

This Week’s Salad Club Share Includes:

• Head lettuce

• Big ol’ watermelon

We have just enough watermelons for our Salad Club members, so they won’t be listed on the website. If you’re a Salad Club member and would like a watermelon, just leave us a note in the comment box at checkout!

Now, we’re going to get back to work! Place an order in the online store, stop by St. John Produce or Quality Health Foods, or come see us at the Defiance Farmers Market.

With greens and gratitude,

Matt and Allie
