I know I briefly mentioned my great help this summer but since the semester ended last week, I thought it would be important to highlight my intern, Buster. Many of you may have met him during the CSA pickup. Buster started...
We did it, folks. We survived last week's heat wave! It was a scorcher, but we pushed through. We went from hot (just working outside) to hotter (working in the hoophouses) to "oh my god, it's an inferno" (working in the...
Before getting into this week's farm update, I wanted to take a moment to talk about the weather and how wacky it has been this season. There is always unpredictability during a farm season, but historically weather has been...
As we continue to move along through the month, our summer crops in the greenhouse and hoophouses are really starting to take off. The greenhouse is looking especially lush at the moment. The hot peppers are starting to...

Well folks, another CSA season has come to a close at the TC3 Farm. I can't thank you all enough for supporting the farm, myself and especially the student interns. This was a particularly challenging year with only two...
We have made it to the penultimate CSA week, folks. I'll save my thoughts on the season for next week but it is amazing that it is November already. What's even crazier, is that there are 5 weeks left in the semester before...
