This week we harvested 106 pounds of Korean Melon off of just one row! These mildly sweet and crisp fruits lived up to their reputation of being super productive in the summer season. Farmer Matt prefers to enjoy these personal-sized melons as a mid-day snack, especially on hot days! Also known as Chamoe in Korean, this melon is traditionally prepared in salads, kimchi, and as an appetizer.

Despite rising temperatures, the farm is vibrant with colors of deep green from Roselle and Cowpeas, sprinkled with a pop of color from beautiful flowers! We highly recommend taking advantage of the last days of summer with kiddos and enjoy a morning walk through the farm landscape. If you are interested in a more educational farm adventure, mark your calendar for our monthly Farm Tours that take place every fourth Saturday of the month!

Farmer Josie is also in the planning process for community events and programs on the farm this coming Fall! Adults and kids alike will have an opportunity to learn more about our sustainable growing practices we use to produce delicious food for the community, while also interacting with nature in fun and creative ways!
