week 16/2020

Good morning, ladies and gents

A week has gone by and I did not even try to improve my HTML skills.
Sorry.

But we moved a lot of logs. Last year’s pumpkin patch in the woods will now become sunny rows of crops. Seedlings planned for these rows are slowly getting big enough to transplant. So yes, things are growing. But they are growing slowly.

So what is new in the garden for calendar week 16/2020?

Let’s see:

Rattlesnake pole beans, yardlong beans, malabar spinach, zucchini and tromboncino,
the generation after next of beets, carrots and kohlrabi are showing.
Arugula and corn salad are ready to harvest next week.
Fennel, kohlrabi, celery and head lettuce will need another week.
the only thing ‘new’ and ready to harvest this week is spinach.
Carrots, spring onions, green garlic, deer tongue lettuce, mixed color leafy lettuce,
rainbow lacinato and curly kale, collards, Swiss chard, young beets, purple mustard
are still going strong, so are all of my herbs.

From calendar week 19/2020 on

Duluth Cottage Kitchen will spend Saturday mornings at Suwanee Farmers Market.
the but?
Suwanee Farmers Market does not allow sales of cottage food items.
If you want to pick up jams, jellies or dehydrates at the Suwanee market,
please pre-order “for pick-up only”.

Special thanks to young Erika and to my old friend Judy for helping me tackle my many weeds.
