Finally, it feels like spring. Our outside Christmas tree became a favorite spot for a little bird.


As new farmers, we have small excitements all the time. Of the photos below, can you tell which one is tomato and which one is chard?


Photo 1 is tomato and photo 2 is chard. I didn’t know they look so similar until now…
Outside, komatsuna, spinach, radish and peas started to sprout. Garlics we planted last fall (first time!) are growing. This is the best time of the year for us.



For baking, we have been doing experiment with koji bread. In addition to our regular flavors of maple walnut and sunflower seed, we made komatsuna sesame for last Saturday, and peanut soy sauce for the week before. We will keep creating and bringing to the Saturday markets.



Of course, we will have sourdough spelt and rye bread as usual. Please click below and fill in the form or send us an email to sorafarmveggie@gmail.com for pre-order.
Thank you and have a wonderful week!

Other plants start with the pair of leaves like this. I have peppers doing the same thing.
In your pictures, in the top photo the stalks are hairy, indicating tomato. In the second photo the stalks are red, indicating chard.
Cheers,
