Another "Off" Week from the Winter Share

Dec 6, 2025
1 min read

This week is another down week for the Winter Share. As we have moved to every other week distribution for the cold season. And COLD it is! I'm glad we aren't having share pick up while these frigid temperatures move through. This past week was quite a busy one preparing for a low of 8 degrees :0 We've harvested everything from the big fields as mentioned. We have some spinach and greens braving it under a frost blanket and the snow in hopes it will survive under the insulation from the cold. This week we will uncover it and see if it made it (fingers crossed).

Otherwise we are also concerned about the veggies growing in the unheated tunnels. They can handle the freeze/thaw cycles, but SUPER cold temperatures will injure any tender parts of the plants. We even put a frost blanket on our indoor kale. We usually never do that.

We also have started seed ordering for next year. Kinda difficult to imagine harvesting watermelons next Summer right now.
