Oct 18, 2009; Week 21

This is my second to last week and there are still things to be done. The cool weather vegetables are still growing slowly. hopefully the spinach will be grown by Thanksgiving. There will be a special Thanksgiving share of greens, potatoes, onions, etc, for those paying members that renew for next year in November.

We harvested turnips, radishes, cabbage and more celery root. We also harvested some greens -- I think it was tat soi. We still are distributing stored onions and potatoes. The farm had visitors for a garlic planting festival who had rode down from Rochester on bicycles. I planted a few bulbs before my shift was over. Garlic is planted in the fall for harvest the following spring.
