Shameless promotion
We made our first delivery today to the St. J Food Coop -- salad turnips and spinach!


Go there and demand more OSF yum yums! The season is upon us!

This is magic! The last time I looked I thought Old Shaw Farm was just shaking off the winter. Now you have veggies going to market! Were these grawn in your hot house?
Posted by: Mike, pgg's dad at May 5, 2006 04:56 AMMaryellen, those salad turnips are gorgeous! The leaves look absolutely pristine - did you grow those under row covers or in the greenhouse? We have two more weeks till our first market (our first ever in NJ!) I'm egging our greens and peas on so we can have a nice first week's haul.

Anyway, those salad turnips were actually grown in the greenhouse. We were experimenting with growing small, short crops beside the tomatoes, figuring we'd have them done and out by the time the tomatoes got big enough to use the space. Good luck at your first market!! Have fun!!
