Summer is almost here and our crops are growing well.  Strawberries are here but only for a couple more weeks, so enjoy them while they’re here.  Peas have begun—sugar snaps, followed by snow peas and then shelling peas.  We’ve been picking spring onions and scallions and will have them for several more weeks.  Swiss chard and beets will be the next to arrive.  Lettuces are doing well and we now have many varieties that we are picking.  Herbs of all sorts are still coming in as well—oregano, chives, savory, dill, cilantro, mint, curly cress, lavender flowers and maybe some others. (Most can be dried for future use)

Saturday June 20th our annual farm tour and strawberry picking will happen—a walking tour at the field. Meet on the corner of Rose Hill Road at Montauk Highway in Water Mill.  

Tours begin at 10:30; 11:30; 12:30 & 1:30.  No charge for tour and everybody gets 1 quart of strawberries.  For more info, call 631-726-1900 between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM.  Hope all get a chance to come visit our farm.  Our next tour after this will be in October.

So enjoy our seasonal, fresh, local organic produce because it never seems to last long enough.

Organically Yours,
Farmer Bill
