Week 8: July 25, 2015

BEANS, BEANS Out with the old veggies and in with the new! Beans are a summer staple in our home and they are about to become a regular item in your share. We have planted several varieties (greens, golden wax, dragon’s tongue, blue coco) to keep things changing for you. If you have an urge Continue reading >>

Week 7: July 18, 2015

BEETLES AND TOADS The peas are already on their way out. It seems like they just started fruiting and the first row we planted is already starting to fade to yellow vines. Unbelievable how quickly we are breezing through the summer. We Grow’s shares may look a little different by the end of week seven Continue reading >>

Week 6: July 11, 2015

Mother Nature has been playing games with gardeners across Wisconsin with very cool overnight temps. We didn’t realize just how cold it was getting, as there weren’t any frost warnings, until we noticed the basil started to look burned on the top most portion of the highest leaves. At first we suspected sun scald since Continue reading >>

Week 5: July 4, 2015

Week five already! Are you finding yourself trying recipes you’ve never tried before? We hope you are. You might have to get creative to utilize everything in your share. Get ready for slicing cucumbers. The vines are loaded and just getting started. Next week we should have enough to sell some extra. If there is Continue reading >>

Week 4: June 27, 2015

Week four already! A few major things are starting to ripen in “taste-test” quantities at We Grow. We savored our first tomato, cucumber and pod peas on Friday. Even better, there might even be a few of these summer delights for our members’ crates. We will see how the week shapes up. This first variety Continue reading >>

Week 3: June 20, 2015

Week three – what a lovely weather week! We are done planting for a little while until a few more rows open up as we are out of space. I never thought when we started working this area, about an acre, that it would not be enough room to plant everything we have in mind Continue reading >>

Week 2: June 13, 2015

Week two – the first spring garlic and “earliest-we’ve-ever-grown” napa cabbage. If there was only one thing we could grow in our garden, it would be garlic. Not only is garlic incredibly healthy for you, it is one of the easiest things to grow with a little good advice. Our garlic is doing great and Continue reading >>

Week 1: June 6, 2015

We love eating the first veggies from the spring garden, fresh lettuce being the ultimate after a long winter! Enjoy the greens while they last, because when the heat turns on, the lettuce turns bitter. This week, it is with great excitement – and anxiety – that we prepare your first farm shares. We are Continue reading >>

Week 18: October 2, 2014

With the cool, wet summer weather we weren’t certain what to expect when we began to unearth our sweet potatoes. Much to our surprise, they are worth sharing with our CSA members. So after curing at a warm temperature for a few weeks for allow the skins to set and the starches to settle into their Continue reading >>
