It seems like just yesterday that we were shoveling dirt and sowing the first seeds. Plants sure do grow up quick, and over the last few days we’ve been doing our best to keep up with the zucchini, yellow squash, peppers (both hot and sweet), and basil that are dying to be eaten. Just today, we harvested our very first cucumber, which is on it’s way to a much needed salad on a scorching July afternoon. Our neighbor Francisco also stopped by to help us harvest some of the vegetables, and take some home too.
Also, Ken Walker from The Daily Newarker, and his cute as can be daughter Dahlia came by to check out the farm and take a few photos. The Daily Newarker is a wonderful blog that is doing its best to inform the public of many of the positive things going on in Newark. We want to thank Ken for thinking enough of us to include BCUF in his weblog.
