Sweet potatoes and winter squash are still in storage and many types of root crops all will be brought in for the next several weeks. Look for cabbages, oriental and other greens and some herbs as we finish out the year.

We still have a field of tomatoes getting ready to ripen, and with enough warm days we'll have tomatoes until Halloween.

Farmer BillSummer is coming to a close and our summer bounty will soon be giving way to our fall crops. We still have plenty of tomatoes, eggplant, scallions, and carrots.

Our fall greens will be starting soon - tat soi and pak chois of several types, as well as a new red mizuna by the end of September.

farmer billAugust is here and so is the hot dry weather. No rain in the last two weeks has begun to stress out some of our crops, especially the greens - lettuces, chards, beets, and herbs.

Another season is upon us and our first deliveries are happening. Because of our cold spring, our strawberries are arriving later than expected, but with the heat of last week they are finally ripening. Our first weeks we will be bringing in lettuces, salad and culinary herbs, radishes, and some asparagus. Swiss chards and our different types of peas should arrive by mid-month, with beets and carrots soon thereafter.
