We are open everyday with Fresh Picked Strawberries and at least two varieties of lettuce. The store hours are Monday-Thursday 10-6pm, Friday and Saturday 9am -4pm and Sunday 10am -4pm.
By this weekend we may have a few pints of raspberries ready for picking, however I really mean a few pints and no more. We will have picked strawberries, lettuces, Swiss chard and the first beets and carrots. We will not have any PYO strawberries. The rhubarb is still available for our customers and is PYO.
The Lisianthus is budding up and ready for planting. We have 3 colors.
The farmstand is open every day: Monday thru thursday 10am to 6pm and Friday and Saturday 9am to 4pm and Sunday 10am to 4pm. We have fresh picked strawberries every day. We also have large leafy heads of lettuce, Kale and and swiss chard. So far we can't keep up with the demand for the swiss chard, however we do have it in the morning at least. I picked my first carrots and beets and radishes. The carrots are still a little small and somewhat twisted up. We don't have sandy soil so they hit rocks now and then and bend around them. the radishes look great and the beets need to get a little larger before I harvest the rest of them.
Pick Your Own Raspberries will be starting soon! We have four new long rows of raspberries for you to pick from in addition to last years berries. When they start we will be opening earlier, probably 8am during raspberry season. The early varieties may be ready within 5 to 10 days. It's hard to tell with these consistent cool temperatures.
Also available: 6 paks of fennel, cilantro, and 4 paks of the specialty cut flower lisianthus and many varieties of handmade soap.
The farmstand will be open Monday thru thursday 10am to 6pm and Friday and Saturday 9am to 4pm and Sunday 10am to 4pm. These will be the farmstand hours for the next two weeks at least. We have fresh picked strawberries every day. We also have large leafy heads of lettuce, Kale and every few days spinach and swiss chard. So far we can't keep up with the demand for these last two greens. Also available: 6 paks of fennel, cilantro, and dill and 4 paks of the specialty cut flower lisianthus and many varieties of handmade soap. Randy's huge PYO tomato patch, which is way out back this year, is planted on nice dry land so all this rain hasn't been a problem for it. Other vegetables growing in our fields are sweet corn, beets, carrots, peppers, cucumbers, brocolli, onions, delicata squash, summer squash, zuchini, flowers and herbs. Perhaps more? We also have a mystery cucurbit type plant that was given to us last year by a customer. We are curious to see what this turns out to be.
The raspberries look great and we have a new bed for you to pick from in addition to last years berries. We will be opening earlier, probably 8am during raspberry season. The early varieties may be ready before July 1st!

The strawberries have peaked and are now ahead of Randy. We will take calls and emails from 5 p.m. Tuesday ( not before) until the lists are full, or 7 p.m.; for you to pick your own strawberries on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday during the hours of 8 a.m. to 6pm for this week.

We have a mixture of berries to pick, eight varieties, including the smaller ones great for jamming and large berries that are great for everything.
Although the farmstand hours are 10am to 6pm Monday thru Thursday and 9am to 4pm on Friday and Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday we will be allowing picking to begin at 8am.

Yes, we have lots of Lisianthus for sale as well.
Posted by: Heather Warren We will not open up the beds to the public as in the past anymore for strawberry season. If we do any PYO strawberries it will be by invitation only. Randy is picking the strawberries for the farmstand so we can stay open regular hours. We will have PYO raspberries as usual. They look great and we will start with the early varieties late June or early July. We have a new bed for you to pick from this year. We will be opening earlier, probably 8am during raspberry season.

Randy's huge PYO tomato patch, which is way out back this year, already has tomatoes set for 2 weeks now on the early varieties. It's on dry land so the rain has not been a problem for it.

The farmstand will be open Sunday June 14th from 10am to 4pm with fresh picked strawberries, large leafy heads of lettuce and Kale. The spinach and swiss chard are picked off for now. Also available: 6 paks of fennel, cilantro, dill and feverfew, 4 paks of the specialty cut flower lisianthus and many varieties of handmade soap.
Due to the cool weather of the past few days and the next few days at least, we don't expect the strawberries to come on enough to start any "pick your own" as anticipated by June 15th. We don't know when the berries will load up enough. Perhaps by the end of the coming week. Please scroll down thru the previous blogs to the "Warren Farm Newsletter" for more information on how we are managing the strawberries this year as it is different from past years.

Wednesday we'll be open 10am to 6pm with fresh picked strawberries, spinach, large leafy heads of lettuce and swiss chard. The cool weather has slowed down the ripening of the berries and the growth of the greens. We may run out of spinach and swiss chard if we sell a lot early in the day. We have many heads of lettuce in the field and don't expect to run low on it. Because of the slowdown of ripening on the berries we expect we'll be closed tomorrow. I don't know about Friday at this time.
We are glad it's raining as all the fields were dry. Randy had the irrigation running a lot the past 10 days, however it never seems to do as well as mother nature.
