The Tipping Point

July 15, 2009 Stefanie Zaitz

Malcolm Gladwell would be proud to know that this organic farm has recently reached its tipping point.  Within the past week, things have just exploded out here.  We are harvesting every day.  Contrary to the USDA's food pyramid, I'm thinking we all should be eating about 45 servings of vegetables daily.  The summer squash cannot be tamed, them beans need to be picked every day or so, the flowers are almost all in bloom.  Le tomatoes are getting big and green and are about to produce ethylene gas to ripen up any day now.  There are baby cucumbers, flowering melons and hot peppers abound.  All that energy in, and now we sit back, chow down and sell some bushels.  ... and work our tails off keeping those weeds under control  ;)
