Well the majority of our apples are finally coming in. Last week I picked a few early golden delicious and Ida reds, so we should be harvesting all of the goldens this week.
Greens are also coming in slowly, but they are coming. Yesterday I was tilling between the rows and I would have to say that the arugula will be in next week with tatsoi and savoy coming quickly.
As for spinach and lettuce, it may be a while:( The rain did in the first summer spinach planting and leveled the lettuce. The lettuce will recover and the second planting of spinach is coming.
Apples - mix of golden delicious, granny smith, and ida reds
Plums
Pears
Raspberries?
Carrots
Green beans - Yep, they re-blossomed again and look excellent!
kale and/or swiss chard
Onions and/or scallions
Eggplant - likely
Tomatoes
Peppers - red pepper likely
Rutabaga?
basil or dill - whichever you didn't get last week
potatoes
cherry tomatoes
sun jewel melon - likely this week, a small specialty melon that tastes like honey dew mixed with cantaloupe
Coming next week:
Watermelon, either a yellow flesh or a traditional red.
Squash: This has been an especially hard year for our squash, but it looks as though we'll have enough for at least one delivery
Lima beans - enough to add to a veggie soup. We were experimenting with growing these this year:)
Mutsu apples and also apples available in quantity by next week
