Technology has failed us once again...so this week there will not be a photo. Anyway...here are my predictions:

Half Shares: Pie Pumpkin or Winter Squash, Kale, Sweet Peppers, Tomatillos or Eggplant, Green Tomatoes, Sunflower Seeds.

Full Shares:Pie Pumpkin or Winter Squash, Kale, Sweet Pepper, Hot Peppers, Okra, Green Tomatoes, a Ripe Tomato, Sunflower Seeds and maybe eggs.

Please note: I have been called in for jury duty this week. As a result, this will be the first week ever in the history of Eener's Farm that I will not be present for packing up for deliveries...best of luck (I'm sure it will go just fine, Cass totally has this under control).

Best guess for this week:

Farm Photos

I figured it was about time to post some farm pictures:


Here's Forest with a nearly-ripe jack o'lantern. Don't forget, Big Fall Harvest Party Fest is Sat. Oct. 15 where a whole lotta these will be here for CSA members/party goers to pick up.


Maybel the mighty racoon dog. She was a little reluctant to pose for this picture since it wasn't quite time for her to be in her house (she's only stationed there during night-time hours).


This is a hoophouse shot. Forest was getting bored at this point hence the ornery face. Notice the great okra plants and the sad tomato plants (boo!).


Here is Cass bringing down the goat ladies Rose and Shirley. We've been really enjoying their milk. I think goat cheese is in our future!


Forest and the sunflower patch.

Number Twelve

My very best guess for this week:

Half Shares: Green Beans, Cucumbers, Summer Squash, Brocolli or Tomatillos or Cherry Tomatoes, Assorted Sweet Peppers (not in photo), Garlic, Onion and Kale or Swiss Chard (not in photo).

Full Shares: Sweet Corn, Cucumbers, Okra, Tomatillos, Garlic, Summer Squash, Spuds, Carrots, Assorted Hot Peppers, Swiss Chard, Herbs and other hip treats.

Check out these hay making pictures from last week. We put up a whole mess of square bales...it was quite the operation.

Number Eleven

Sorry for the very late post...it's been a really fun weekend around here. We had visitors all weekend, attended Pickle Fest, a threshing bee, a family reunion and a fish fry. As a result we just got done picking for Monday's delivery. Anyway...
