NEWS FROM THE FARM
Did I promise the end of the peppers last week? I think I did, but the pepper plants had other plans. So here, fully into the first week of November, we present you with 4 more peppers! It’s amazing, really.  And more of the wonderful brassicas you all loved last week… and a nice quart of sweet potatoes for roasting in your oven on a cold night.

We expected a freeze here on Sunday night, but were pleasantly surprised when it didn’t happen! We lose our tender crops in a freeze, so luckily we may have a little more time to harvest them before another freeze warning comes our way. (Our cold weather crops can be harvested through mid-December despite freezing temps!)
