The strawberries are back on in good quantity and quality

Posted 8/31/2010 6:34am by Heather Warren.

Randy went out to pick berries this morning and came back in very pleased. The strawberries are numerous, have good size and don't have the insect damage that we experienced in July and most of August.  We expect to have plenty for the farmstand all day. There are many half ripe berries in the patch and unless something out of the ordinary occurs we will have plenty of berries every day.

The late summer plantings of sugar snap peas are ready. We are picking these for the farmstand. So far we have four plantings of them in the ground. We love sugar snaps because we can eat them, they  trap nitrogen within their roots and when we are finished picking on them they are tilled in and provide beneficial organic matter to the soil. It's a win, win, win, situation.

The Pick Your Own tomato patch has plenty of tomatoes for picking. The cherry tomatoes have been picked down for now however we closed the bed all weekend during the fair so it ripened up in good order.

At the farmstand we have silver king corn today, sunflowers, bouquets, lots of handmade herbal infusions soaps, colorful glycerin soaps, numerous varieities of tomatoes and many other farmstand vegetables.

We are still open every day. Monday thru Friday 9am -6pm and Saturday and Sunday 9am - 4pm.
