Crops
Our major crops for the past
several years have included tomatoes,
onions, potatoes, leeks, radishes, spinach, cabbage, and
broccoli. What we grow each year changes depending on our
marketing goals as well as the interests of club members. In
2006, we plan to add sweet corn as one of our major crops and we will
be dropping the brassicas. We also grow several perennial crops
including
asparagus, raspberries, strawberries, and rhubarb. We're always
interested in trying
new things. So if you have any ideas of crops you'd like to grow and
you're willing to share
your skills and time to make it happen, we're game!
Marketing
We are in the process of brainstorming and developing our marketing strategy for 2007 and we are always open to new ideas.
In the past we have occasionally marketed our produce wholesale through Wheatsfield
Grocery, John's
Natural Foods, and All-Iowa Meals at ISU's Scheman Center (and
other events through the Practical
Farmer's of Iowa brokering network).
