First dandelion flowers of the season! Great to have the sun shining and to feel the warmer energies start to come back to the gardens ☀️☀️☀️☀️

Seems like overnight it’s all systems go over here at the farm! Been really busy preparing beds, adding compost to them and pulling weeds. Yesterday we planted spinach, baby lettuce and kale, and Swiss chard - a 50ft row is ready for peas and we’ll be transplanting hardy veggies out this week (and possibly even tomatoes). The ground is looking amazing.

If you’re around this coming Saturday 5/14 from 12-4pm we’ll be hosting a work party. DM me or comment below if you’re down to come help! TIA. 🙌🙌

Tomatoes, flower bouquets, garlic, summer squash, herbs & so much more available this week! PRE-Order today by midnight to secure your order (on Facebook) for Wednesday pickup in Duluth - find out more about this awesome group on the private FB Group - Twin Ports REKO Ring 🎉🎉🎉
