The unique shape and versatility in the kitchen has made Patty Pan Squash a fan favorite during the Spring and Summer season! Veggie lovers enjoy this squash prepared in many ways like dicing and roasting, slicing fresh into a salad, and coring the middle to stuff with your favorite meat or rice. We are also excited to restock the Grab-n-Go cooler with tunnel-grown cucumbers! These fruits are slender, long, and crispy - perfect for a summer salad or sandwich.

This week we also enjoyed a very small taste of orchard fruits that are in abundance and slowly ripening. Freshly harvested figs warmed by the summer sun taste like a spoonful of sweet jam! These early harvests are sparse and must be caught before the birds find them, but we are hopeful for bigger harvests soon that will be sold in the Grab-n-Go cooler!

Be sure to stop by the Farm Stand this Saturday from 9am - 12pm to get your fill of summertime veggies and flowers! In coming weeks we plan to fill the field with more beautiful sunflower varieties that will bloom in late summer. For now, the birds are feasting on many sunflower heads in the field that have made delicious seeds!

In Season : Patty Pan Squash, Cucumbers, Okra, Long Beans, Basil, Peppers : Banana, Shishito, Green Bell, Sweet Bell, Jalapeno, Mad Hatter, and Poblano, and Flowers

Due to potential rain this coming Saturday and an influx in the mosquito population due to recent storms, we will be postponing the Buds & Blooms Kids Farm Adventure that was scheduled for this Saturday. Our Farm Stand will still be open and stocked full of delicious veggies and beautiful bouquets! With many recent inquiries about fruit growing on the farm, we are happy to update that melons are ripening well and should be available within the next few weeks. This year we are growing cantaloupe, Arava, and Korean melons - each with their own distinct colors and flavors!

Did you know that around 80% of flowers sold in grocery stores are imported from other countries? Enjoy the beauty and benefits of fresh, local flowers grown without synthetic additives by shopping at the Farm Stand on Saturday or our Grab-n-Go cooler at your convenience! Flower bouquets are arranged and sold the day of harvest for optimal freshness and lasting enjoyment in your home. We have stunning varieties of zinnias, marigolds, celosia, sunflowers and more!

The first rounds of okra and long beans have hit the shelves in the Grab-n-Go cooler! During any dry moment on the farm we are preparing beds to plant more summer crops like beans, eggplant, and okra. These crops are prized for their resiliency through our extreme summer heat and pair wonderfully when cooked together as well!

In Season : Slicing Tomatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, Roma Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Basil, Asian Eggplant, Italian Eggplant, Okra, Long Beans, Banana Peppers, Poblano Peppers, Green Bell Peppers, Shishito Peppers, Green Onion, and Flowers
