My little green bean assistant ❤️

The garden is beginning to look like summer. Greenbeans, potatoes, onions, broccoli, cauliflower, kohlrabi, and zucchini are all making an appearance. So are the weeds.....

Why wait till Thursday night to visit the Farmer's Market? Shop for local, fresh produce at your convenience, and, most times, an added bonus: parking in front of the door! Not to mention all the extras the store offers including homemade baked goods, take & bake meals, farm eggs, honey, aronia berry products, frozen meats from area farmers, Millstream soda, homemade soaps, and the list goes on!

We've had an unusual spring at the farm. Consistent cold nights took its toll on the strawberry crop 😔 However, the cole crops look awesome and we had almost zero insect pressure!!

Cold turned into hot, and watering is constant due to the lack of rain. I will post pictures of our garden later, and explain our irrigation process.

Meanwhile, stop in for some local, homegrown produce to enjoy this weekend!!

Farmer's Market season is upon us. We are not participating in the Jefferson Street Market this year; however, the store will be open until 7:00 pm on Thursdays to accommodate Market attendees 🙂

Can't make it on Thursday evenings? No problem! We have our additional store hours with convenient parking Tuesday- Saturday. This will be helpful due to construction on Washington Street. We hope to see you soon!!
