Fingerling Potatoes

We hope to have a good selection of fingerlings Saturday if we can get them out of the ground.

After moving the laying hens Wednesday morning, we went to dig potatoes. I ran the cultivating tractor with the potato plow attached down a row ( our rows are 440' long) of Rose Finn Apple fingerling potatoes. The yield was disappointing compared to the Bintje potatoes we have been digging, only a few 5 gal. buckets off the entire row.

But then Jenifer boiled some for supper... They were awesome! We… Continue

Limited eggs, no more lettuce, garlic, and Zephyr squash.

I will be at Charlotte and Jenifer will be at Matthews.

We are also at the Tailgate Market every Tuesday along with other local growers, local food purveyors, and artists and craftspeople.

Lightening Bugs (Yankees Call them Fireflies)

June 18, 2009

I will be at Charlotte and Jenifer will not be at Matthews. Ellie got selected to play on her softball league's all-star team from this area and the games begin Friday, hosted in Anson county, and go on Fri., Sat., Sun., and Mon.

We are very proud of Ellie but my opinion of youth ball is checked with a frequently bitten tongue. It is madness. Growing up playing Little League, there were few if any parents at the games, just boys playing baseball and having fun. Yeah, we wa… Continue

A day in the life of two 21st Century Agarians

Monday, June 8th, 2009

Monday morning, the first thing I did was spray the few transplants in the greenhouse with pyganic We get these small moths about this time every year that reek havoc on transplants, mostly brassicas. I failed to mention this to Jenifer and she came behind me and watered the greenhouse washing off stuff I had just applied. Totally my fault, I just grunt most days until noon except on Saturdays when I have to talk.

Then we went to spot spray the the potatoes with S… Continue
