July Farm News: Full of Gratitude & Needing Support

Hello Mustard Seed Farm Friends,

Somehow it's already July, which is an action packed time here on the farm. Here are a few highlights of what's going on this month.
We are still trying to get all our crops planted! We managed to get a row of cucumbers and another of pole beans planted last week, but we are very behind on getting fall crops like winter squash in the ground. It's been a challenging year because we've been very short on labor, but we are doing our best and trying to do lots of creative decision-making.
