Arctic Organics Notes from June 26: "Midnight sun lettuce! The lettuce seems to have grown overnight. Except that this time of year there is no night. And that’s partly why it managed top sneak up on us. The first lettuce patch of the season is the picture of perfection this week, yielding us a solid harvest of full-sized heads. The Asian veggies are continuing to take the lead in early crop production. This week we have several offerings. All of them can be cooked or eaten raw, with the exception of the turnip greens, which are best cooked. We are still waiting for a good rain shower. In spite of scattered showers visiting many parts of the area, we still haven’t experienced any. This is causing quite a strain on the limited supply of irrigation water. The lack of rain is great for the people, but bad for the crops. Enjoy the vegetables!"
