MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 25/52 of 2021 

Dear Farm Members,

Happy Summer Solstice! On Sunday, the sun traveled its longest path through the sky, marking our longest day this year, and a subtle shift towards darker days on the other side of the season. Everything is growing as fast as it ever will at this point, and it won’t be long at all before we’re harvesting tomatoes, beans, corn, and melons en masse for your boxes. With this year’s soaring temperatures, it can feel like summer arrived weeks ago- but the fun is only just beginning. Stay cool this week, and enjoy your veggies!
