NOTE: My self-Eval is located in my reports tab.

This week was a lot more than just writing a self eval. I updated reports and I thought about my future as a farmer. I put together CSA’s. I planted the fall garden. I weeded. I cried. Then, I just went a little numb.

Last week, I prepped the garden for the fall garden. This week, I planted it. Onions, greens, leeks, spinach, and all sorts of brassicas. I can’t believe how much we did. The pests ate some of my starts, so I did need to replant those this week. which was the last chance that I had to. Carrots planted, turnips, and so many other things. It was almost like a second spring. We will weed a ton in september and early October, but shouldn’t need to do too much after that. Once it starts raining and getting colder at night, we will cover the rows.

I harvested all of our bulbed onions and have set them out to cure! I stopped watering the tomatoes, though the rain seems to be doing that for me…. I am not ready to give up on the tomatoes though, and I may try covering them a little in these temperatures.

I packed 3 CSA this week, and sold 4 dozen eggs. I did in fact take this week off work so that I could pack in 30 hours into this last little bit. I think between all the things, I was typing or outside way over 30 hours in 4 days. I’m back to work tomorrow, so I am finishing things up tonight.

I’m ready to be done. I’m ready to relax a little bit. We’ll see how that goes though. My husband is going back to work, and it looks like I’ll be taking over SAH parenting and starting our 4 year old in homeschooling. Let’s see what this fall brings.

I’ve enjoyed writing these posts for the last 10 weeks, and it has definitely brought me some joy. I think I may start a blog for my farm after all of this. We’ll see though.

Thanks for coming along with me on this journey!
