Fall Farm Switch-Up

20160903_094647No Farm Stand this week as the farmers take their son to college. Our hardworking interns will be holding down the farm, and keeping up with the fall harvest. New Farm Stand hours will begin upon our return: Saturdays 9am-1pm, beginning September 24. We’ll have all the fall favorites – winter squash and pumpkins, dry beans, onions, carrots, potatoes and more!

TOMATOES: Farm Stand Tuesday 4-7pm

2015-07-28 15.17.55It’s busting out tomatoes here on the farm, and wow do we have a deal for you! $3lb OR if you stock up on 10 pounds or more, the price goes down to $2lb!

  • Pop them in the freezer as is for garden fresh goodness all winter long! Skins come right off, making sauces and stews a snap!
  • If you have more time now than later, roasting chopped tomatoes, and whatever sauce veggie you love in the oven – 90 minutes or so at 400 degrees. Stir every 20 minutes or so. When cooked down, remove, cool down, bag and freeze. Easy pasta in the dead of winter!

This week we are also picking lettuce, green beans, beets, eggplant, basil, peppers, cabbage, pie pumpkins, sweet corn, chard, carrots, onions and hops!
