Radishes


Earlier this summer, the Providence Journal did an article on succession planting. Tom Meade interviewed me on this topic and Kris Craig took some nice pictures at One Love Farm. Here is a link to that article in the Pro Jo.

Some of the best crops for succession planting are beets, lettuce and radishes. Radishes only take 28 days from planting to harvest and love cool weather. So, we plant radishes early in the spring and again in late summer every two weeks for continuous harvest. In fact, we are picking radishes this weekend for the Richmond Farmers' Market on Saturday.
