Today was my 1st day to work in Cardo's new field. It's amazing how much they already have growing there! Their new field is in Shiloh Fields, a gardening ministry by Denton Bible Church. They are doing amazing things! Growing lots of food and donating a lot to people in need. Really amazing work! Here is their facebook. Here's a Denton Record Chronicle article about the field.
Today I harvested okra, cucumbers, and did some hand tilling.
Cucumbers are quite abundant (that's why they are inexpensive)
Snack time
I hand tilled around some butternut squash plants. It's to break up any weed roots that could be forming. I broke up the soil and then rebuilt the mound around the plant.
The farmers tilled the rows with this handy thing. It breaks up the plant roots, which is why I went behind them and hand tilled around the plants.
Thanks for the flowers farmer friends!!

My pretty flowers!
I never shared yesterday's CSA with you. Sorry, it's already in the veggie bin, and I didn't want to pull it out for a pic. Basil, onions, okra, squash, zucchini, cucumber. I cooked some of the veggies last night with my gnocchi..
