Summertime Walk

This weekend we welcomed CSA members, their family members, and Full Belly Farm friends to the farm for our annual Open Farm Day. Though temperatures topped out at 105 degrees, we snacked on strawberries, chatted about soil and sheep, and traversed the farm on our covered wagon.

As I walked around the farm this morning, the results of this early summer heatwave were apparent everywhere I looked – fruit is ripening, flowers are blooming, melons and tomatoes are coming in from the fields by the handful (soon to be truck-full). I hope you enjoy your box this week – summer’s bounty will be in your kitchen soon!

Thanks so much to everyone who came to our open farm day.  It was so great to meet you all!
