Bring on the beets
Along with the summer season comes a great variety of summer crops and we’ve got some big beets in the house. Pictured is one of the beets harvested in one of our biggest US food harvests yet.

Growing greens
Our Asian Greens are huge! Here is a full grown Vitamina plant – similar to tatsoi or Bok Choy.
Student siting
The HDFI is a breeding ground for knowledge. A group of students came out to HDFI to learn about pH, nutrients, hydroponics, compost and pollination. It’s always exciting to see people interested in what’s going on around the farm.
The cucumbers are coming
Summer crops are in the ground. Here are baby cucumbers adjusting to life in the hoop house.
Summer has arrived!
The summer sun is here and it’s time for shade cloths. Here, FarmCorps members are pulling the black cloth across the top of the house.
