Good morning! The weather is absolutely beautiful this weekend. We'll be OPEN Saturday & Sunday, 8AM - 6PM. The πŸ“ patch has made a nice comeback this week with the heat, and there's a new batch of ripe berries! Currently, the patch is plentiful with lots of delicious ripe strawberries, so come on out and pick you some baskets. Our cucumbers are coming in nicely too...our kiddos LOVE 'em! The zucchini & yellow squash are going strong and are really tasty. The fresh taste of the basil is amazing!


Folks have been asking when the season will come to an end...great question. It's highly weather dependent, and it currently looks like rain in the forecast next weekend, so this will likely be the last good weekend of the season. I'll keep you posted, but if you've been looking to squeeze in one more weekend trip to the patch, now is a good time! 🌞

We'll be open Thurs & Fri 8AM - 6PM. We also have zucchini & yellow squash (more selection towards the far ends of the rows). Plenty of basil too!
