If you haven’t been up before 8am recently you may not know this but fall really is coming! Last week’s cool temps and rain made for some happy plants.

We’re so excited to start the third session of our CSA off. This is a truly magical time of year for veggies: you’ll be seeing late plantings of summer favorites, alongside the return of greens, sweet potatoes, and other root crops.

Although we’ve been a short break from CSA, we’ve been cranking out some amazing fruits and veggies at the farm- and we can’t wait to share them with you again next week. There is still time to sign up for our Fall CSA!

We’ve made it to the end of the summer CSA season, and into our little late-summer break! We’re going to miss you terribly this week and next as we shift gears and get ready for the fall season to start the first week of September.

Our figs ripened just in time to make it into the last week of Summer CSA!

We’re excited to keep sharing the summer bounty with you, even as our fields and mindsets start to shift towards fall.

Last week, fall seeding started in earnest! We’re starting our kale, collards, radishes, lettuces and more summer-into-fall favs. Field work is kicking up again too, with beds being prepared and seeded with some late summer and early fall things. Needless to say, we’re staying nice and busy.

The tomatoes are still going strong, even with the heat! We’re still going strong too, and finding ways to stay cool under the hot Georgia sun.

The unrelenting heat, the bug pressure, the weeds! Growing in Georgia in July ain’t for the faint of heart, folks.

We’ve had an eventful week! One malfunctioning walk-in cooler, one broken spigot, and one snake-y surprise - we’re feeling grateful for afternoon storms, popsicles, and our incredibly hardworking team right about now.

With last week’s hot and dry weather, we’ve been busy getting fields ready for late summer and early fall plantings, keeping at it with bulk harvests, trellising tomatoes, battling the weeds… the list goes on! We’re staying as hydrated as we can, and we hope you are too!

The near-constant rain last week has thrown a wrench in a lot of our plans, but there is some good news to report: we are officially in tomato season.

We’re staring down the summer solstice - the longest day of the year. Looking at the fields right now, full of flowers, food, and a healthy dose of weeds, we can really tangibly feel the effects of the long, warm days.

Squash and cucumbers are fruiting like crazy, and tomatoes are a not-too-distant dream. In a surprise turn of events, the strawberries (who seemed to be fizzling out a few weeks ago) are back to producing some gorgeous berries, so expect to see more of them this week.

It’s Summer CSA Week 1! Welcome to all of our new CSA members and welcome back to those joining us fresh off their 12 weeks of Spring CSA goodness!

We can’t believe it’s the last week of Spring CSA! Thanks to all our members this season for showing up in all kinds of weather and rolling with it as we worked out the kinks in our process. Now who’s ready for Summer CSA??

With our first week of consistently warm temps behind us, your Diamond Hill Farmers are feeling ready for summertime!

Happy week of Mother’s Day to all the mommas, mommies, mother figures, mom friends, and all others who deserve to be celebrated this weekend!

EVERYTHING is popping right now

The very first of our summer fruits will be coming to market and get ready for some ZUCCHINI in your CSA shares!!!
