Diversified family owned farm with road side stand open April through December Open again in April and looking forward to seeing you.

10/08/2026

We have many of your favorite seasonal varieties at the stand now! Macoun, Cortland, Empire, Golden Delicious, Mutsu, and many more are available. Now is the best time of the season to stop by and shop our widest selection of apples!

There’s just something about fall on the farm. It’s easily my favorite season here and one that’s worth a visit (or two)😉

We get a lot of questions about the ginger we grow, so here’s a little overview of the process!

We have some unfortunate news to share. After reevaluating our apple crop for the season, we’ve decided not to open Pick Your Own apples this year.

The yield on many of our trees is smaller than usual, and we want to make sure we can keep the farmstand well stocked throughout the season. We absolutely love having visitors in the orchard, and we’re really sorry we won’t be able to share that experience with you this year. The orchard is still looking beautiful, and we’re already looking forward to welcoming you back to pick next year!

The good news is that all of the apple varieties that you would normally be able to pick will still be available at the farmstand. Starting this week, we’ll have McIntosh, and Cortland won’t be far behind.

Thank you for understanding and for continuing to support our farm. We hope to see you at the farmstand this fall!

This season’s bounty is going strong! We’ve got peppers, peppers, and more peppers. And many other things, but definitely peppers 😆. It’s a great time to stop at the farm stand to shop the biggest variety of veg we’ll have all season!

It’s watermelon season! Join me as I harvest our first melons of the season. The excitement of this type of harvest is what keeps me going. It’s really so fun to find these after growing them for a few months. And yes, Madonna s new album is what I listen to when I pick your vegetables in the morning.

July photo dump, pt. 2

1 - We are growing our own corn again this year, which I know our customers are very excited about!

2 - Growing corn does come with a few complications, though… one of which is birds. They love to peck the tips of the ears, which can make the corn unmarketable. So, I decided to try a new bird management tactic that I read about over the winter. As you’ll see in the video, we installed two air dancers in our corn field. I think you can probably tell I’m already losing it, but call me crazy… they seem to be working!🤞

3 - Our cherry tomatoes are really starting to produce. I know they taste amazing, but I’m always amazed at how beautiful the mix of colors and shapes is. They might be one of the prettiest crops we grow.

4 - We also hosted a volunteer group of about 25 people to harvest surplus blueberries. Together, they harvested 172 lbs of blueberries that were delivered to four different food banks in the area. We would love to do more events like this in the future, so keep your eyes out if you’d ever like to volunteer!

5 and 6 - Our pumpkins, winter squash, and watermelon fields have filled in beautifully. Expect to see watermelon in mid-August and pumpkins and winter squash starting in September!

7 - Lastly, we planted one of our high tunnels with a buckwheat cover crop this summer. Buckwheat is great at outcompeting weeds, adding organic matter to our soil, and attracting lots of pollinators. It’s also just beautiful to look at. This will be mowed down soon, and the tunnel will be prepped for fall greens.

July photo dump, pt. 1

The beginning of July looked a little different this year.

1- We spent several days working through the wildfire smoke. Farming means being outside most of the day, so smoky days add another challenge to an already demanding season.

2 - Cyclospora also became a huge topic of conversation around fresh produce. We’ve seen so many new faces at the farm because of it, and I just want to say thank you. Thank you to everyone who has chosen to support us and trust us to safely grow your food. It truly means more than you know.

3 - One of my favorite parts of the month was having friends from college come visit for a few days. July can be the point in the season where I’m running on empty, and spending time with people who refill my cup was exactly what I needed. They’re also featured in a few of my favorite photos from the month, wandering through the cherry tomato rows.

4 - In true July fashion, one of our cultivating tractors broke down. She may not look like she’s in the best shape in this photo, but new parts have been ordered, and she’s well on her way to recovery.

5 - We also planted our fall carrots! This year I experimented with flame weeding the beds before the carrots germinated. The idea is to eliminate the first flush of weeds with the torch just before the carrots emerge, giving the carrots a head start. So far, it looks like a success!

6 - And finally… tomato season is here. The plants are beautiful, the harvest is abundant, and it’s officially caprese season.
