Week 12 Earth Building

This week we dove back in to our mountain of mud for one of our favorite art mediums, Cob. A full immersion experience to retrofit the earth oven with a chimney and create other mud art adornments. 

This week we're also up to our elbows in manicuring the garlic and shallots, making kale chips and harvesting lettuce seeds.

Week 11 Beauties

The Garlic has been unearthed and drying and it's the one finest crops we've grown! A robust collection of bulbs rich in oil, vibrancy and aroma. We couldn't be happier. My two co-conspires in garlic planting last fall humored my weighing and selecting of every single clove and I have to say, as tedious as it was for all of us, it was well worth it.
The seven varietals of hops we grow are starting to make their magic. For the home brewers, tea drinkers and dreamers out there we'll have fresh whole hops, dried hops and fresh frozen hops again this year.

This week the share includes a flavorful collection of kale, chard, garlic, shallots, cilantro and basil.
