For those of you who are part of a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) -- have you been affected by this crazy hot weather? Our CSA has been struggling because the heat has affected pollination, which means that means that we have been getting produce less than expected. However, I know that we accepted the risk along with the farm and we are in this together. Nothing beats local, organic produce, no matter how much of it you get each week. The awesome thing is that the farm also raises chicken and is trying to get members to recommend other ways that the farm can provide for them. It is so good to know that the farm cares about the members just as much as we appreciate all of the fresh, in season, organic produce that they provide us.

Wordless Wednesday - The Face of Summer

Weekend Gardening
Moved mulch. Removed a huge chunk of the blanket. Dug through insanely hard clay. Planted ferns. Added fresh compost (from my compost pile...yay!). Realized the ferns weren't quite in line. Decided that they would look better not aligned. :)
