Vermont Home Gardener

A reminder of what you can do this week.

Garden To Do List (7/17 - 7/24):

  • Make new batch of biofertilizer with fast growing weeds (hemp nettle, lamb's quarters, bishops' weed).
  • Remove suckers from supported tomatoes to strengthen main stem.

For details about "how to" click on the above links or go to Vermont Home Gardener.

Friday again already — and with it, a wide-open weekend just waiting to be filled.

This past week, Vermont threw everything at us: sunshine, warm summer breezes, a good crack of thunder, a haze of smoke, and rain — followed by more rain. Somehow the farm keeps humming along through all of it, and we hope you're ready for a good weekend ahead too.

We'd love to see you at the farm stand. Here's what's on deck:

Saturday brings freshly baked breads to the counter, and Millicent's sourdough English muffins already arrived yesterday. Stevens Farm's sweet treats join them tomorrow — the kind of counter that's dangerous to walk past.

Raspberries are back this weekend too, starting Saturday. They disappeared fast last week, so if you want some, don't dawdle.

Your weekend dinner plans are covered: beef (ground beef, steaks, ribs, roasts), pork (sausage, bacon, ribs, roasts), and fresh chicken. If you're standing there wondering what to make, just ask — we love helping you plan the meal.

And the produce table is deep into summer harvest mode: onions, garlic, salad greens, zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers, and snap peas. Bring a bag, fill it up, take summer home with you.

You'll find us at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly, right next door to our friends at Crowley Cheese. Open through Sunday, 12:00–5:00.

FINAL LOST DOG UPDATE
SHES HOME!!!!!!!! She was spotted and recovered on 7/15 in the early am. She is matted and has lost weight but she has been resting and sleeping all day. She still doesn't know her name but it is SweetP. We will see her vet on Friday for a full check up and until then it's organic chicken breast and broth.
Our town is full of hero's who have helped everyday that she was gone. The hero's who rescued her this morning are Melanie, James, Angus and especially Tom (who she nipped in the process). I am grateful that you all went so far above and beyond to bring her home.
We've taken down all the lost dog signs with a few missing. Central Vermont Canine Rescue would love them all back for the next lost dog. If you took one down for me when you heard she was recovered ....thank you. If you could drop it off anywhere at 2062 Belmont Road I will be grateful.
Mount Holly is an incredible community! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Gwen

Winsome Fly controls Japanese Beetles in Mount Holly!
Beetles with one or more white spots just behind their heads are infected with the parasitic Winsome Fly and should not be killed or trapped. (see photo) They are already dying and incubating the beneficial Winsome Fly that will hatch and infect more Japanese Beetles. This biological control can be very successful if we let the fly complete its life cycle in the beetles.
