Farm News – August 11, 2025

Hey Folks! So the beautiful weather continues… if you are not a farmer. Down here on the farm it is starting to get ugly. There is still no rain in sight, and it has me very worried. We are using all the tricks that I know and all the pumping capacity that we have, but it is hard to give all the crops the water that they need to grow. We have five acres of winter squash and pumpkins that we will never be able to irrigate. We are in between plantings on the string beans. We hope to have enough for all groups, but if we come up short, we will make it up next week.

The share will be: Peppers, eggplant, carrots, squash, green cabbage, leeks, gold potatoes, melons, tomatoes, beans, and basil. Premium shares will also include fennel and cherry tomatoes.



There will be a flower share this week and nectarines and a large watermelon for the fruit share.

Enjoy! Farmer John
