Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
By all accounts it was a successful market. Today was a lovely bright day which must've got the punters out! We sold about 30 pots of honey and ALL the aubergines and maybe a dozen butternut squash (even though they need ripening indoors still).
The two big Slow Food markets are at the end of September/beginning of October. By then we will have masses of butternut squash and also the Japanese Uchiki Kuri squash. Maybe some more aubergines but only if I take them indoors. We'll also be selling honey and sheepskins. The forecast for the next 2-3 weeks is milder (ie warmer) but with a risk of light morning frosts as far south as Central Finland. We should be OK.
