End of summer or endless summer?
As we were all so busy yesterday, like any summer day here, I realized it was nearly October, I have been irrigating almost everyday here this September, my crew is as large as its been all year, and we are still doing everything we can to stay ahead. It was looking as though the sun was never gonna leave us, but as us farmers know, it is inevitable. But we have been getting better and better every year at preparing for cold wet months and extending the season to bring our own produce to our loyal c.s.a. and market customers.
Things are really looking great out here this fall, knowing there is always risks when you put seeds in the ground anytime of year, it is extremely important to have as much control as possible over the growing conditions of those plants. By starting many of our crops in trays to ensure good germination, then transplanting them into which by design conserve space and make maintenance and weeding easier, and covering them with hoop houses to keep the frost away and promote growth these last months of fall. With these points in mind and a massive amount of organization and experience we hope to break barriers that most Washington growers never thought possible. Our Loyal c.s.a. & market customers should be looking forward to months more of our fresh greens and vegetables, grown locally & environmentally sound, with the utmost care and greatest quality available. Thanks for making it all worth It!!! *Brett*-Manager, willie Green's.
