The Fall colors are growing a bit more vibrant every day. We hope you are getting out and enjoying the unseasonably warm weather.
Our garden is preparing for its Winter rest, with the exception of some prolific red habaneros and late arriving Ecuadorian lemon peppers.
We usually plant garlic in mid- October, but if' this warm trend continues, we will hold off awhile.
This week we have been busy replenishing our shelves of all seven varieties of our Dried Mushroom Seasoning Blends and bottled a batch of Fermented Habanero Hot Sauce, just in time for a busy weekend of markets.
Tonight we will be at the La Crosse Farmers Market Association HCCC location from 3:30-7🍄🌶🍁

Autumn in the Midwest is the most beautiful and also the most fleeting season. Enjoy crisp air, the visual splendor of Mother Nature's paintbrush, and the sound of leaves crunching beneath your feet, before the snow flies.
This week we will be outdoors at:
La Crescent Farmers Market: Tuesday from 4-7
La Crosse Farmers Market Association HCCC Market: Friday from 3:30-7
Winona Farmers Market: Saturday from 7:30-12
Onalaska's Farm Fresh Market: Sunday from 8-1.
There is still plenty of fall produce available at market, and we will be bringing our fresh mushrooms, which are grown all year and are a wonderful addition to heartier autumn fare.
We will also be at the Onalaska OmniCenter on Saturday and Sunday for the Fall Craft Fair, where you can shop for seasonal home decor and begin your holiday shopping.
Take time to be outdoors, eat fresh and healthy, support local and savor every moment of the season 🍁🍂

Our Arriba Jalapeño peppers took their time to ripen this year, and we are happy to share that our Arriba Jalapeño Turmeric Hot Sauce is now available. A warm thank you to Lonnie and Sandy from Whitewater Gardens Farm for sharing some of their organically grown peppers, so we were able to make a more generous batch of this favorite Sauce 🌶.
Pick up a bottle today at the La Crescent Farmers Market. There are only a few more outdoor dates for this market, so enjoy shopping in this beautiful setting while you can 🍁🍂
