Our town of Westminster placed American flags all along the main street on Memorial Day weekend; they’ll fly until Labor Day. Our uncles, Roger and Ralph, and dad, Hocker Harlow– the second generation on Harlow Farm — all served in the Armed Forces during World War II and just after. We remember them and all the others who have served our country. Photo by Lori Larue.
The weather turned off just right for haying this week, so Brandon and the rest of the haying crew have been out making hay for the beef cattle, and straw for bedding and to mulch some of the vegetable fields. The asparagus bed, new last year, and just finishing up for this spring, got a good blanket of straw to keep down the weeds.
This year’s strawberries are just starting to ripen, so watch for them at the farmstead. They’re looking great!
Welcome to Harlow Farmstand’s 23rd year! We had a peaceful and happy winter, and a successful second year of our Winter CSA—thanks to all who joined us.
Spring came along right on time this year, and our hanging baskets, bedding plants and vegetable starts look fabulous. We’re picking our own asparagus now, as well as greens from our high-tunnel greenhouses and from local farms such as Old Athens Farm.
Michael Lenox is at his Café Loco for the twelfth year. And we have many events planned this summer: stay tuned for more.
