Hey Uncle Guido, get outta here. Sheesh, the stuff I have to put up with here, one week it’s the cat hacking my account and posting blog entries, and then the slightly off center brother of my father who watched one episode too many of the Sopranos begins to think he has the chops to write for my website. Where do I find good help around here?
Sorry again about last week’s closing, the rains, as many of you know, were torrential. Matter of fact, my farm is still not dried out. The local dry riverbed, the Hassayampa, was running heavy last week filling nearly the breadth of the river bed. The good news is that the cauliflower looks spectacular, none of the aphid problems that I had last year. The broccoli is AWESOME and I have a ton of it. While I was catching up on chores this past week I dug a bunch of new holes for the wide variety of fruit trees I’ll be planting in the next days. I’ll try to tell everyone more about that development in the next days. For now I need to post a quick veggie list and get some sleep, it’s almost 11:30 p.m. as I write this….zzzzz.

Oh sure there’s something I’m forgetting to tell you here, but I’m sure if there is anything else you need to know, like a reminder to bring back egg containers, or bring your shopping bags, or maybe that I accept checks, cash, credit, and debit cards, well it could be I’m forgetting to tell you my phone number is 623-386-3033 and I’ll be open this Saturday at my farm in Tonopah and Sunday on Estrella Parkway, if I’m forgetting any of that, I hope you can find just what you are looking for by reading more of my website below. Seeya this weekend, The Sleepy Farmer.
