Sorry to leave you hanging for so long! The waters did recede - do a compare and contrast to the last post's raging waters to the pictures I took today. It didn't take a whole month to go down - the waters went down almost as quickly as they rose, I just didn't get around to showing you the proof. That's the good news. It's not all bad news, but we did have quite a bit of crop & plantings damage. Read all about it in the post-rain event newsletter here.
Sad but true, no leeks this year:Too much rain has continued to fall, but recent plantings have not washed out, so that too is good news.
It's been a bit of a struggle, but we've continued to pack beautiful boxes for our CSA this month:
Looking forward, we're leaving the summer season and transitioning to the fall crops - look at the lovely squashes!
We're going to have an awesome Harvest Party this Sunday - no puerco quemado this year, either. Angel, Rafa & Chef Katie have a plan for cooking a pig that will not involve overwhelming flames. The guys built a beautiful horno/underground oven that we can use for roasting (and check out Angel's kickin' yellow galoshes):
Hope to see you at the farm this weekend!

I cannot believe no one commented on this! I think this is a fabulous post! And I want my own beautiful horno.
Thanks for sharing!
