The Small Farm Unit completed the summer season of vegetable direct seeding and transplanting to the certified organic plot including bush beans, pole beans, okra, and others in the lower field.

We harvested 2718.52 lbs of fresh fruits and vegetable between April 2021 and June 30, 2021. Varieties included Asian greens, Brentwood lettuce, asparagus, blueberry, blackberry, spinach, radish, radish green, kale, purple beans, and cucumber.

Our spring crops are still growing strong in the upper field. The summer crops are exceeding the production expectation. There will be two plots for organic flowers and one plot for organic vegetables in the fall.
