One week later and the tomatoes are officially upon us! The harvest of both slicing and cherry varieties is ramping up by the day and we’re looking forward to having a good selection at the market this weekend. At the same time that the tomato harvest is starting, fall planting is really starting to kick into gear. The fall carrots have germinated and are ready to be thinned and weeded. The fall beets went in this week along with some cabbage and the kale, collards, and chard will be planted in the next few weeks.
We’ll be a little light on the salad mix this week, a casualty of the too-hot weather of the last few weeks, but we’ve got arugula coming out our ears, so it’s a perfect time to mix it up a little and look up some arugula salad recipes!
Check out our full harvest list below and we’ll see you this weekend!

July 25, 2019Wohoo for the tomatoes, every farm market shoppers dream! Bet you’re happy to have these cool nights for a change.
We sure are! Seems almost impossible that Fall planting could be starting. No rest for the weary!
