This week's staff profile is on Simón. This is Simón’s second season with us and has a great, easy-going personality and is a bit of a joker. Today is his last day with us for the season and we will certainly miss him! •Simón• Hails from: Altamira, Tamaulipas (East Coast of Mexico on the Gulf) 🇲🇽 Number of seasons at Cropthorne: 2 Number of seasons farming: 12 Favourite Vegetables: 🍅🍅🍅 Favourite job on the farm: Everything (even when asked about picking beans, he smiled and said everything!) Why do you like farming: Seeing things grow.🌿🌱
Not the most ideal soil conditions for prepping garlic beds but these sunny days are certainly helping and gotta love a little fall tractor time before she’s put to bed for the winter 💚🚜💚
Puntarelle season is starting!
Sweet Potato harvest today! Wished we would have had them for Thanksgiving but a wetter fall has delayed the harvest until today. Crop is looking pretty good though and found some winners from our trials with new varieties from @lindenlanefarms 🍠💜🍠💜🍠💜
🍂🍃Autumn🌾🍁 is in season at the farmstand and we've got a wide selection of veggies🥦🌶🥒🍆🍅🥔🥕, eggs🍳, gourds🎃 and flowers🌻💐🌼 to make your Thanksgiving meal special. Everything is 🐞Certified Organic🐝 and grown right here on our farm. 💥Open at the @cropthornefarmstand this weekend FRI, SAT & SUN from 10-5💥 #eatlocal #westhamisland #ladner #tsawwassen #certifiedorganic #homegrown #fallbounty #thanksgiving
Another crop in the books! Our 2018 Rutabaga harvest is complete! Rutabaga, like a lot of root brassicas, are not easy to grow organically but with hoops and row cover we can usually pull off an unblemished crop. And this year’s crop is a beaut 😍
Today is our LAST Main St Market of the year! Thanks to all our customers, awesome market crew and other vendors for another memorable year! Come find us at West End and Kits Markets on the weekends or come on down today until 6 and stock up on all of autumns offerings 🥕🥦🍅🥔🍆🥒
Early start on the potatoes this morning. Wasn’t the only one though, could hear all the neighbours tractors and harvesters going too! One last push this afternoon and spuds will be done, it’s taking some time with the wet conditions but it looks like a bumper crop 🥔🥔🥔 Nearly running out of harvest bins 😬 #neverenoughmacros
💥It’s that time of year!💥 Time for staff profiles of our awesome farm team. Depending on the day there’s up to ten people working to ensure some of the best organic food is being grown here at Cropthorne. This week’s profile is on Isabelle, she’s been with us just over a year and has become an integral part of our team, looking after the seeding/transplants🌱and much of the post harvest area in the barn. She’s also a familiar face to those to visit the Main St Station and West End markets. •Isabelle• •Hails from: Kingston, Ontario •Number of seasons at Cropthorne: 1 •Number of seasons farming: 4 •Favourite Vegetables: Cherry Tomatoes and Hakurei Turnips •Favourite job on the farm: Propagation, everything from seeding to watering transplants. •Why do you like farming: The connection to community it creates
After last seasons failed fall Napa crop this is a beautiful sight. We’ve got an amazing crop of green and even a little bit of these beauty red ones!
We had big plans to harvest the rest of the potatoes today but the weekends rains will hold us off digging for one more day; So instead it was a few macros of beets plus the start of the storage radish and turnips and then ramp up for an epic one day event tomorrow for potato harvest. Hopefully after one more dump at the end of this week the rain will heed to some sunnier days so we can get on with the rest of harvest.
It always feels good to get ahead of schedule. We carefully schedule the next few weeks of fall harvest to make sure we are hitting each weeks harvest targets, as there is a lot to bring in the next while! On this weeks harvest slate was Winter Squash but we happily finished up harvest on Tuesday and have gotten on with the storage potatoes. We are 1/3 of the way through these guys (including these beauties, Amarosa) and looks like good weather next week will have us finished ahead of schedule. We never know when we’ve got to wait out wet fields so it’s full steam ahead when the days are dry. #harvest2018 #harvestallthethings

It’s Canadian Flower Week (and happens to be Canadian Organic Week too!) and to celebrate @riverandseaflowers and @perennialgatherings has put up an amazing flower display at the @cropthornefarmstand Come out to the farm this weekend 10am-5pm and check it out! #grownnotflown #slowflowers #canadianflowerweek
Sometimes there are no words for the beauty that we harvest from the field
Fall radicchio is coming in strong 😍 We’ll be adding some of these beauties to our restaurant fresh sheet next week while others won’t be ready for a while yet, just in time for our winter CSA boxes come November.
