Hey gals, 

We donated 74 lbs of lovely produce today to the Bellingham Food Bank. Not bad for a really hot day. 

See you all next week and hoping for cooler weather.

a brief history

  just had the opportunity to share my invitation to join the funny farm gang with strangers met today.....in 2016 i was invited to join...when they told me they were the funny farm i immediately thought this was a perfect fit for a retired psych nurse.....what a great journey!  and quick history we had 2 farms going then.  the homeowners providing our farmland were so organized...we spent 2 hours at each farm weekly,,,  made it so possible to do!!!   i was allowed to bring my amateur documentarian skills to create this blog.....it has been such a pleasure to be in this gang and feeling like we were doing something very valuable for our community.   and it will be even more so in these times

oh and from Fran last year,,,,

 I came up with 1,010.5 lbs. Not bad for a somewhat smaller plot that was planted July 2 with mostly transplants. That includes contributions from some of your own gardens as well, of course.
