We’re droppin’ like it’s hot! Our Spicy Hot Kimchi sent to Bloomingfoods Co-op Market today. These keep flying off shelves and you are keeping us BUSY! Fall fermentation season is upon us again.

Lacto-fermented goodness using locally grown cabbage. That’s the good stuff. 🥬👊

It’s getting figgy over here!
We’ve been harvesting many pounds of juicy ripe figs since September. In between eating them to our heart’s content and sharing them with friends, we’ve still got enough to preserve these morsels into little jars of jammy fig goodness!

Coming soon to a holiday market near you!

There’s not much that beats a sweet, jammy, perfectly ripened fresh fig in our eyes… especially one hand plucked straight from the garden.

Our figs are planted into beds made of local limestone, helping to keep the stems and roots happy through our Midwestern winters!

Look out for us at winter markets from November to December for an ✨extra✨ special Indiana Fig Jam. It’s truly delicious.

Happenings on the farm & in the kitchen this week: Caramelizing red onions & green tomatoes for our chutney, hand-picking sweet jammy figs as they ripen, cooking up more of our heirloom basil marinara, che fruit harvesting, and jarring up some delicious apple cinammon jam using our own Liberty apples.

Find us tomorrow Btown Comm. Farmers' Market for a little taste of Indiana’s finest flavors, preserved into little jars of goodness.

While the heat loving pepper plants are thriving, after months of working in the heat and humidity, us farmers are feeling a little weary, definitely tired and looking forward to a good winter’s rest. Go hug a farmer today and tell them it’s going to be alright. We could use it. 🫠😂

The garden is slowing down, but we’re still in the kitchen creating plenty of delicious preserves, sauces, pickles and more. New asian pear & ginger jam coming to this weekend! 🍐 Made with crystallized ginger for that sweet gingery kick that pairs nicely loaded on top of oatmeal, a thick yoghurt, or with a good soft cheese.

This one’s for the sour fruit lovers out there who love the tartness of the green gooseberries combined with the deep sweetness of blackberries. It’s the jam that perfectly complements a thick greek yoghurt or a good cheese.

Blackberry Gooseberry jam available now while stocks last! Along with:
• Blueberry Lemon • Juneberry Rhubarb •

Find us Saturdays at Btown Comm. Farmers' Market 8am to 12.30pm

Updates of the late summer forest gardens:
The days are shortening again, the sun sits lower in the sky, and we’re looking forward to the sweet, cooler temps again. The garden ebbs and flows, but still abundant in tomatoes, the start of our apple harvest, ripening grapes, hummingbirds and butterfly gatherings, herbs and flowers for days on end.

Guess who’s back?! Just dropped off 🍅SALSA FRESCA🍅🔥 at Bethel Lane Farm Stop Bethel Lane Farm Stop. We will have some al...
