Week 3 box contents and two bouquets. |

Lemon grass and asparagus across the top. |
I start off each Tuesday taking photos of Lisa's flowers so there will be flower pictures for each week. I don't always get photos of the produce, but man, her flowers!
Here are today's flower photos.

Today's list of goodies. |

Getting ready to burn holes into a length of landscape fabric. The wind causes problems so the rock collection grows! |
|
Some of the holes have been burned. This piece of landscape fabric has a wider space for the walkway. |

It's an herb and greens time of year. Left to right: sage, kale, mint, lavender, beet (greens), sorrel, coriander, lettuce and green onions. |

Guess what this is??? |

Lettuce soaking in the cool water. |

The melon patch is being planted through olive green plastic with drip tape underneath. They produce more when green plastic mulch is used. |
|
Florencio uses a clam gun to make holes through the plastic. He has to watch out for the drip tape underneath. Laying the plastic with the drip tape underneath with our machinery and then planting manually is all very labor intensive. Melons love heat and this helps us produce watermelon and cantaloupe here in Salem. He is taking a well deserved break.
See you next time on the blog. Lorrie |
