Farm Update


The tomatoes are ripening a little at a time and many folks are trying an heirloom tomato for the first time. We have had Cherokee purples and a few Brandywines and mortgage lifters. They aren't the beautiful perfect tomato that has been picked green and gassed to ripen in transit to your grocery store and tastes like nothing. They have the most incredible fresh tomato taste you can find. We are getting a few more each day.

If you're still in the blueberry picking mood, the last couple rows of bushes have a lot of berries on them and they seem a little less tart than they were a week ago. Don't waste time getting over here though, this should be it for blueberries.

Now available

Blueberries
Tomatoes
Green Beans
Zucchini
Potatoes
Turnip
Carrots
Beets
Green Peppers
Jimmy Nardello sweet frying peppers
Onions

Believe it or not, we will begin to plant crops for fall in the next couple of weeks. Things like lettuces, spinach, radish, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, potatoes, etc.

We should have some cantaloupes and honeydews soon.

Don't forget we will have corn from Friday afternoon through Sunday this weekend.

Vicky and Steve
