Planting Time Again






We are heading into winter and we're trying to finish planting our greenhouses with cold crops that will survive the temperatures here in Trenton, MO. Our son, Jeff has taken some pictures of what is growing nicely already. We have spinach, swiss chard, radishes, leeks, carrots, mache, arugula, mizuna, cress, (lots of salad mixes), kohlrabi, golden beets, tatsoi & broccoli. Enough anyway, to keep us busy along with the other field work that still needs to be done before snow flies!
We have done just a couple of our winter markets and are so thrilled there are so many of you out there who are willing to still come out on chilly days to get your fresh vegetables! Thank you so much!
Hopefully you are all getting the emails we send weekly noting what is available for that week. If you aren't, please email me and I will gladly try to fix it or add you to our list. You can email us at providencefarms@grundyec.net.
Alot of you are asking for our "sales associates" (the children) so we'll try to bring them occasionally to keep up their customer skills:)
If you decide to come visit us at one of our Winter Delivery Locations please feel free to do so. We always load up the van with lots of extra produce just in case. Here's where we are on Tuesdays only!
