3:00 - 20 berrylicious flats just arrived, veggies on Saturday, honey arrives today ++ muffin recipe
Hi gang,
I just dropped off 20 freshly picked flats of berries. There will be plenty for you late afternoon, after work folks and we’ll make it until 6PM.
If you don’t get a note from me in the morning each day, assume we’re open at 10AM and it’s business as usual. I’ll keep up the afternoon updates since so many of you find them helpful.
Petaluma Bounty should arrive on Saturday with veggies. Stay tuned. I need to get in touch with Amy to find out what she’ll bring.
The O’honey gang is coming today!!! Their delicious, raw, local honey will now be available. It’s a wonderful tasting honey from a wonderful 4-H family project.
Today is bug releasing day. That’s right….. I walk the field every Wed. releasing good bugs that chomp on the nasty spider mites. Spider mites are a constant battle and I work really hard to keep them from taking over and destroying your plants. Heavy spider mite damage affects the plant and the flavor of the berries. Darn pests!!! Today 20,000 of them will be released to roam the fields and munch on mites.
