Well, we have started the corn harvest. People have become used to getting corn year round from the large grocery stores that import corn from mexico or further. If you have forgotten what “just picked” corn tastes like we urge you to come to the farm and get your weekend meal fresh from the garden! We grow a number of varieties of corn, at the moment we are picking a bi-colour sugar enhanced and a super sweet corn. Both are delicious. And YES, this corn is grown HERE in the valley. We are constantly asked if we actually grow all of the vegetables. The answer is of course, this is a market garden!
We have also started the field grown tomato harvest. We have tomatoes available at the on farm market, and later in the season we will be bringing them into the RFM. Hot peppers are also ready.
