This spring and summer has been a crazy one for everyone at Gumz Farms. We have multiple building projects going on, are working on changing audit schemes for our packing shed, welcomed a new office employee in our HR department, Tonya, and have been working on that transition since April, and are completing all of these changes while keeping up with normal business. Normal business being packing onions and potatoes, planting this spring, and keeping up with field work and equipment maintenance. Wow, that was a mouthful!
Here are some photos of everything that's going on: 

Second up, onions:

If you would like to see video of some of these processes, visit our YouTube channel.

Yesterday I was able to capture some video of the guys planting seed potatoes and onion seeds. As you'll see in the videos, when planting seed potatoes, we don't need to build the beds special, the potato planter does that. However for the onion seeds, there's an extra step of building the beds. Feel free to email, call, etc. with any questions you may have for us!

This past week we've finally been able to try to get in some of the fields... We've got some onion sets in, some mint roots planted, and more. Check out the field video below of Al and Doug and his guys planting some onion sets over at Lewiston.
