Generous and timely spring rains followed by the warmth and brightness of early summer are helping our gardens thrive! We are still harvesting lettuce, chard, kale, collards, and fresh herbs. The snap peas, onions, and fennel bulbs are on their way out. We will start digging potatoes soon and the zucchinis, summer squash, beans, and tomatoes are starting to produce.
Our volunteer hours are shifting for the summer season! During this time we water, harvest, and tend to seasonal tasks. Please join us, the more the merrier. We are grateful to see new faces!
