Coming Soon: In the next few days we will be planting Regiment Baby Salad Spinach, French Breakfast Radishes, Early Prolific Straightneck Yellow Squash, and possibly more Cukes. Thankfully we have recently acquired two small green houses so we will also have some lettuce, cabbage, broccoli and other greens as fall crops. Of course garlic for next year will also be part of the fall planting.
In other huge news we made an awesome Craigslist find and now Rabbit Ridge Farm has a new rototiller! Well it’s new to us anyway it was actually made in the 70s but the important part is that it isn’t tiny and it runs and tills!
