  the sweet corn looks good and i there's a chance we'll have some ripe enough for the sunday minneapolis farmers market.
  stay tuned.

July 8th crop report

    finally starting to see silk in the sweet corn.  that means ripe corn in about 20 days; hopefully the weekend of July 27/28.   that's about 10 days later than normal.
  the corn crop is uneven, but improving with the warm weather and adequate moisture. 
   the last 10 days of hot dry weather has really benefited the vines; especially the melons.
the melons are just starting to set fruit now, so i expect the first ripe ones the middle of August.  about the same with tomatoes.
  19 varieties of melons
  50 varieties of tomatoes (yes 50)
