Mid-June Fresh at the Farm Market

Spring ends and summer season begins next week inside the Northern Hemisphere.

There are further vegetation in June than in another month. Bees are at artwork now: “A swarm of bees in June is worth a silver spoon,” says an earlier rhyme.

The flower of June is the rose.

This month, fruit blossoms are starting to disappear and green fruit is beginning to form. Inside the next two months, field plants, trees, and other plants will be triumphant of their fullest maturity.

(Inside the Southern Hemisphere, fall ends and wintry weather begins this next week. In Australia, the southern part of South The us, and the southern part of Africa, now may well be the time for cold and rainy local weather.)

Inside the Northern Hemisphere, the last of the delicate vegetables should be going inside the garden now—beans and vine plants should be planted now. And now may well be the time to harvest and thin onions, head lettuce, beet greens and to revel in looseleaf lettuce, spinach and chards coming out of the garden.
