10-07-09  2009 Season: We had a great 2009 season in spite of all the damp weather and some major crop failures.  We suffered losses of cabbage, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, sugar snap peas to rabbits and sweet corn to weeds.  Tomatoes were eventually overcome by blight from the damp weather as well.  Squash failed due to vine borers.  We will rethink our crop mix over the winter.  We welcome your input regarding varieties you would like for us to grow and make available.  Just email me.
