Week 3 CSA

Our new red potato yield this year will be about 1/4 the usual harvest because of the late freeze this spring.

This weeks CSA included rosemary, new red potatoes, arugula, white and purple turnips, assorted radish, purple haze carrots, Chickasaw plums and baby red onions.

It is good to be different!

The wildflowers are blooming...look at this Black-Eyed-Susan. Is it triplets that didn't separate? Genetic mutation? We will be sure to save the seeds. Anyway, it is good to be different!

I'll drink to that!

Our fingers are stained purple from hours of picking ripened dewberries...what a wonderful contrast to the yellow catus flowers painted sporadically through out the landscape.

The asparagus ferns in front of the house sway back and forth in the wind, saying good bye to spring and hello summer!

Here is to the changing seasons which will bring the dewberry wine....

Week 2 CSA

This weeks CSA will include one bunch of purple haze carrots, one bunch of D'avignon long slender red radish, one head of black seeded simpson lettuce,one bunch of purple globe turnips, one bunch of white turnips, one bunch of white onions, one sprig of chocolate mint, one bunch of Mexican tarragon, dew berries and brazing greens.

Plum Crazy

The native Chickasaw plums thickets are in full ripe! We use them to make wine, jelly and sauces.

The local Indians would dry the plum fruit and add to meat jerky. They are also great to eat right off the tree!! Wild life gets PLUM CRAZY after eating fermented fruit that has fallen to the ground. Yeeee-Hawww!

Lazy rainy day

The clouds rolled in this morning...it has been raining ever since! Our plants needed a fresh drink of rain water, and we needed a lazy rainy day to recharge.

...this old man is snoring!

This weeks CSA included... native dewberries, sweet white turnips, red rover radishes, braising greens (red mustard and boc choy), Eden Creek salad mix, cooking carrots, beets and a sprig of oregano.
