Can’t get over these tomatoes, cukes, carrots, chard, bbbbasil... damn they look good! #organic #missoula #farmersmarket #homegrown #summerscape
Best tool purchase last year : this beast of an undercutter bar. Swipe for action shots and the end result: German Hardy Hardneck gold . For those of you who followed my story a few weeks ago, an update: What we have are stem and bulb nematodes - microscopic worms that feed on garlic and onions. The rot I saw was not white rot (dreaded, 30 year dormancy in the soil) but the effects of common fungi and bacteria taking advantage of weak plants. So, we’ll be treating our seed with hot water baths (and not selling any seed, please get in touch with me if you have problems with the seed you purchased from us last year), rotating crops in a longer-than-four-year cycle, and spraying down equipment that comes out of that field. In the meantime, what we’re pulling looks gorgeous, there are heirloom tomatoes ripening in the tunnel, and salad is growing like gang busters. No complaints here 🌱🌈 😍
Coda supervising @catofthemonthclub during cherry tomato harvest. Quality is very important to us here at County Rail and Coda doesn’t trust just anyone to pick em right. Luckily, he says we got a good one. @clarkforkmarket, that’s great news for you this Saturday 🍅🍅🍅
This weekend a group of farmers came out to Montana to stay at the farm and tour here, @frankslittlefarm (go visit their farm stand on Curtis by @good.food.store !) and @blueeyeddogfarm (homygod Leah’s place is paradise, stop by @imaginenationbrewingco on Wednesdays and grab some extras at her csa pick up!). I cannot express enough the power of this little farmer community that spans Montana to Washington. Every time we gather I feel inspired, grateful, and empowered. Thank you, friends, for your time and for your knowledge and for your care. You’re a cut above the rest and I look forward to seeing you this winter. Xoxoxooxoxox . I, of course, did not take anyyyy photos this time around so here’s my carrot bed, seeded with the equipment dialed the way other farmers recommended and it’s perfect.
Market is particularly gorgeous today 💜
The first round of cherry tomatoes are trickling in and we’ll have just a few pints at @clarkforkmarket tomorrow to whet your summer appetite 🍅🧡🍅
