Melons, sweet corn, tomatoes


  The melons are 10 days - 2 weeks from ripe.  I think about the same with the sweet corn 
 I started growing sweet corn in 1989, 30 years ago; this is the latest crop by far 

   Plenty of nice tomatoes for the weekend 
 This weekend I'll be at the Mill City Farmers market with tomatoes and tomato bread 
8 am - 1 pm
