Well Harvest Homecoming has ended and we are ready to finish out this year’s farmer’s market. We have three more weeks remaining for the season, and the crops have faded fast. Cool weather is upon us and the veggies that love that weather are looking great. We should have plenty of broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage plus lots of greens… Swiss chard, kale, spinach and baby lettuce this weekend.
We have loads of fall/winter squashes available… spaghetti, acorn, butternut, etc… also available this Saturday: a few green beans, potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, beets and some of Kenny’s pepper varieties.
We are finished picking apples and will have Gold Rush, Staymen winesap and a few Golden Delicious apples this week. All of these are great for cooking, eating and apple butter making.
We will have farm-fresh, free-range eggs available, be sure and order early as we seem to run out each week. Bring by the little ones by for their annual “mini” pumpkin!
“Basket of the Week” customers ~ please remember to bring back your baskets. As the harvest season winds down, we have decided to discontinue our “Basket of the Week” program for the year. We will however still offer pre-orders as usual. Our last “Baskets” still looked awesome, but this cool/wet weather has all but ended most of our summer crops. We look forward to offering them again next season. A huge thank you to all those who participated this year!
Have a great week and we hope to see you Saturday,
Val & Kenny
