Fall Share #3

Hi Everyone,

It’s been a busy week! I created work for myself late last week by not watching where I was driving and took out a water hydrant! I needed to replace it to use water to wash vegetables in the packing shed so I rented a mini excavator and dug a hole next to the destroyed hydrant, put in a new hydrant and water runs again. Took a bit of time but it was actually kind of fun to run the Mini X as the rental guys call it. My wife didn’t think much of this unnecessary work or expense though!

The weather actually seems warm. Butternut squash seems to need a threat of cold to turn the right color, I’m still waiting, not a good thing because there’s 1000s laying there so with 4 market Saturdays left there is too many. This week we did harvest a nice kaboucha squash for you.

Here is the list, if anything is new to you please ask one of us about it.

• Carola potatoes
• carrots
• beets
• scarlet turnip
• lettuce
• garlic
• peppers
• celeriac
• choi
• chard
• kale
• tomatoes
• red cabbage
• kaboucha squash
• delicata squash

Janna will be in Sioux City, John will be in Sioux Center, and will have boxes in Orange City by 3, Spencer your boxes should also be at the salon by 3!

Thank you!
