Wow. It has been a long time since I have done a “Fridays at the farm” post. I thought it would be fun to capture the past couple of weeks at Tumbleweed Farm for you all. The weather is changing and we are gearing up for our slower season. We couldn’t be more thrilled to chill out a bit and enjoy quieter days at the farm!
Collard greens anyone?
Haulin’ multiple loads of squash to the truck for a delivery!
Onions have arrived!
Cleaning a few baby leeks to bring home for dinner!
And just like that….It’s winter coat and hat weather!
Chilling in the chard patch!
My favorite helper!
Hello lovelies!
Farmers market time!
Pooped after a long day at the farm!
Happy Friday everyone. I hope you all get to enjoy a relaxing weekend! I will be back Sunday evening with a farm fresh dinner. In the meantime you should check out my featured blog post on the Wellness Warrior. Jess is one of my heroes and favorite bloggers! Check out my guest post here!
You are living my dream life! Enjoy it for the both of us.

have a great weekend!
Thanks! You too!
Those beans are gorgeous. Do the purple ones hold their color when cooked? And your collards are perfect. No sign of a bug in sight. Great job. Take care.
Hi Jean,,
The purple beans are my favorite!!! Unfortunately, they turn green when cooked, but I still love them! Our collard greens and kale have recently bounced back after a long battle with flea beetles. We are so happy with how healthy and happy they seem these days. Lots of collard green recipes are coming up soon!
Looks awesome! Those purple beans are gorgeous. By the way, I’m doing a book tour stop in Eugene Oregon, that’s close to you, right? I’d love for you to stop by!
I totally want to make it out to Eugene for you book signing! When will you be in OR? It’s a few hours form our farm but I totally want to make the journey!
There’s nothing better than a sweet dog who lays his head on your shoulder 🙂 Great post on the Wellness Warrior. Have a super weekend!
Thanks! And yes, a dog on the shoulder is the absolute best!
Gah-lee, those beans are gorgeous!! And that picture of Henry on your shoulder is so precious. Hope you get to rest a little this weekend!
Henry is the best at cuddling! And yes, those purple beans are my favorites!!! So pretty!
my kale should be that big but I still haven’t transplanted it – we are dry and the bugs are awful!! I’ve got 60 plants sitting on my porch. They are going out this weekend. I got a row cover to keep the bugs out and filled up a tank of water in town to use. 200 gallons for $2. sweet!
The bugs were really bad for us too! we kept a lot of our crops under row cover as well. Let me know how yours end up doing!
This is such a great time of year for veggies! Love all those greens!!
Thanks Joanne!
Well done you! What great days, filled with hard work & joy! 🙂 xxx
