Summer Time






Sweating, Planting and Picking....
With the temperatures and humidity soaring, planting and picking are taking more time due to having to take several breaks to cool off. We tried a heat tolerant lettuce and we are pleasantly suprised! We hope all our customers are as happy with it as we are. It flies off the table at market so I think you all are! We are in the middle of planting the fall crops now, the work is never done! The chickens don't like the weather either, they aren't laying as well as they usually do. So please forgive us if we run out of eggs before the end of the markets.

Watermelon, Cantaloupe and sweet corn are the big sellers right now...but tomatoes beat them all hands down!
