A good at year at Tuckered Out Farm looks like this:

Early season

An early season delivery (most of June) consists mostly of greens (lettuce, kale, chard, arugula, spinach), radishes, and early herbs such as cilantro. We try to keep it interesting by throwing in some fresh cut flowers or recipes (what do I do with all this kale?) Fortunately, the chickens are in full swing early on, so you can always count on eggs. You may see some snap peas coming in mid-month, along with strawberries. The mid-June garden is full of promise, with the broccoli and cabbage growing strong, and potatoes leafing out nicely. You may even get some carrot thinnings and broccoli heads by the end of the month.

Mid-season

By mid-season (July), you are seeing more variety. Still lots of greens, but broccoli and cauliflower are in, along with some early potatoes, garlic, and onions. The snap peas and cherries are still producing, and a few carrots dribble in. If the gophers don't get 'em, we start pulling beets, and we can usually harvest cabbage by the middle of the month. We might have some peaches, and our neighbors might throw in some kohlrabi. If nature cooperates, you may even get a ripe tomato before August, but no promises.

Late-season

The late summer/early fall crop is intense. During August and September, we use the gophers to decide when to pull the rest of the potatoes, onions, beets, garlic, and carrots. The newcomers include tomatoes, peppers, basil, zucchini, squash, cucumbers, corn, green beans, and hopefully melons (canteloupe) or eggplant. The chickens are slowing down, so you are seeing less eggs. You might get a pumpkin at the end of the season. If you like quince, we've got plenty. We may even have some pears from a partner farm.

This description includes everything we've ever grown. In a particular year, there may be availability problems due to weather, crop failure, varmints, etc. Last year, our melons never germinated in the cool early summer weather, and we pulled the carrots pretty early due to gophers. One year we have beautiful potatoes, the next year the gophers find them. This is part of the risk you take in joining a farm. We will do our best to provide you with a variety of fresh vegetables, but things do change from year to year, so we hope you aren't banking on one particular item!
