    I spent 5 hours on the tractor shredding the jungle today. It was hot, but the worst part was the grass/weed chaff blowing all around. We had a new(returning) grower - Edgar from Costa Rica - last Sat. He is not certified organic but does follow organi...

    After only 7 days, our hay seed has sprouted and has grown to an amazing height of 1" as of today. It looks pretty now to see the rows of 7" spaced seedlings marching from one end of the field to the other. Give it about 75 days and it will be ready to cu...

    I remember thinking before we began farming how idyllic it was to be riding on a tractor 'plowing the fields'. After many years and 8 hours today alone, 'it 'aint so much fun'. Hot, boring and tedious come to mind. Thats what they mean by 'the grass is al...

    This is the time of year where we meet ourselves coming and going with all the things that need to be done. And add to that the tomatoes are hitting higher production this week again, it's been a little crazy. Luckily we aren't planting anything outside t...

    Sad news that one of our customers has been placed in hospice care this week. Please send her your good thoughts. Tomatoes are finally hitting high gear in production and they look like that they still have a way to go before they hit their peak. Pepper...

    We had a good 1.2" rain on Mon. Enough to soak the ground for a while here in the Blacklands. Shiloh liked all the water puddles. I even bought her a new frisbee and she has been wound up ready to go all week long. - nonstop. Market goes well with cilan...

    Remember winter? It hasn't forgotten us. Brrrr! I spent the day in the greenhouses where I was out of the wind and somewhat warm. It's hard to believe that I was in shorts last Sat. Maew has carrots, cilantro, green onions, and tomato plants. Franklin...
