Community Blackberry Planting this Saturday
Meet us at the Sunset Farm Blackberry Orchard this Saturday, May 16th, from 9:30am – 11:30am to finish planting the final two rows! Last year volunteers helped us plant our first row of berries which are now producing beautiful, sweet fruits. We will have light refreshments and all tools needed for planting, just bring a pair of gloves! RSVP here to help establish a living legacy that will bear fruit for generations to come!
Heirloom slicing tomatoes are now in season and fully stocked at our self-serve veggie stand! Since tomatoes store best when not refrigerated, you will find our cherry and slicing tomatoes in this new enclosed display case. Feel free to open the display case to select your tomatoes and proceed to check out at the iPad stationed on the wall. The Cherokee Purple heirloom variety is packed with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity – great for sandwiches, salads, or sliced with a sprinkle of salt!
Also new to the springtime menu are an abundance of peppers! We are currently harvesting varieties like banana, poblano, green bell, shishitos and soon jalapenos! Our impressive palm-sized poblano peppers are great blistered on the grill and complemented with farm tomatoes in a fresh salsa. Poblano peppers thrive in the milder months of spring and summer, so this is a great time to stock up for any drying or canning needs!
In Season : Slicing Tomatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, Asian Eggplant, Banana Peppers, Poblano Peppers, Green Bell Peppers, Shishito Peppers, Radish, Yellow Squash, Zucchini, Chard, Collards, Kale, and Green Onion
