Jaklamas Farm

We grow lots of lovely food. We are a little farm in the grand scheme of things but we grow a lot of stuff. 

I have big plans. Always do. And then the weather happens. And then blight, and mildew, and bugs. For some reason though we always seem to grow at least something and a lot of it.

We don't grow the boring stuff either. I have fun carrots - all different colors, and multicolored chards. Heirloom tomatoes that are all sizes, shapes and colors. Eggplants are white, purple, lavender, green  and striped. Lettuces you have never seen before at any market because they are too tender. I grow things I like and that are fun. Can you tell I get excited about this stuff? I do.

Last year was the year of the very cold start. The never-ending winter and three foot drifts, chilled the earth so much that most of the garden was very slow to grow. There were lots of vegetables but the middle of the summer wasn't as hot as usual. WIthout the blazing hot summer days the tomatoes and melons are not quite as sweet. The eggplants and peppers were incredibly slow...So each year we plan and plant and see what we get...
