08/16/19 — Farm

It was especially hot at the farm this week, but unfortunately the heat didn't slow the workload. We're entering into one of the biggest planting seasons of the year, and all of our fall crops are being cared for in the greenhouse or planted in the field. Meanwhile, there are summer melons and bushels of squash that still need to be harvested. We're busy, busy!

It's hard to imagine these okra plants started off as tiny seedlings. As we harvest the fruit, the plants get taller and taller, now towering over most of our employees. Photo by Scott David Gordon.

Something amazing happened this week at the farm. Combine some farmers' ingenuity, some broken tent parts, and shade cloth, and behold: the shaded transplanter! Photo by Scott David Gordon.

A mobile tent, that stays with you all day long. This is a game changer for mid-day planting! Photo by Scott David Gordon.
