Scenes from the farm June 2016

Well, it's finally raining a bit so that gives me time to write this.
Buckwheat cover crop when I mowed a fox ran out.
Because it's been so dry, because I had help from Team Community Service, AP Environmental Science students and the larger Brooks community, I was able to plant earlier.  (So grateful!)  Hence, that meant the farm shares had carrots and beets in them before July.
Carrots ready for packing.

A glimpse inside the box with radishes, summer squash and zucchini and a bag filled with greens to keep them from wilting. 
The dryness really helped with weeds though.  Thus, the farm looked pretty good and relatively weed-free last week.
