Welcome to our 23rd edition of Velasco Chronicle & Buzz.
Time to get ready for schools to be let out and the beginning of summer! The month of June brings beautiful bouquets, delicious fruits and vegetables, and an urge to get out there and enjoy the sunshine. June is the first month of the summer season and as we approach the sixth month of the year, we have lots to look forward too. Not only is it the start of summer, but June is also the middle of the year and the midpoint of the growing season between planting and harvesting. The Strawberry Moon appears at various points every year in June. This last full moon of spring is named after the short strawberry harvesting period in the month—and not because the moon looks anything like the fruit. Father’s Day will also be celebrated this month and is on Sunday, June 20 this year. Father’s Day celebrates and honors the men who have embraced the essential role of fatherhood. On this day, we also thank fathers and father figures for the sacrifices they make, for embracing the responsibility of nurturing and raising children, and for devotion to their family. Father’s Day happens to be the same day as the summer solstice (longest day of the year), which makes it the perfect time to kick-off the summer season with a father-focused barbecue, camping trip, beach day, or other outdoor activity!
