Harvest Update

The days are getting cooler and fall has truly come to the Local Food Project garden. Tomato production has slowed down, but we’re still harvesting lots of sweet and hot peppers. We’re picking overflowing baskets full of tender green beans. And the LFP crew is harvesting new plantings of fall greens—Encore lettuce mix, Minutina (a succulent micro-green), Arugula, and Tatsoi. Even after first frost, these greens will keep growing—as long as we keep them protected with row cover.
