Farm Happenings for week of September 27th

Posted on September 27th, 2021 by Kelly Morris

PICK UP HOURS: Pickup hours are Thursday 3pm-7pm, Friday 11am-7pm and Saturday 9am-1pm. Despite what day you chose when signing up for your share, you are welcome to come during any of our open hours. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before closing to give yourself time to gather your veggies. Our FALL HOURS begin NEXT WEEK! Fall Hours will be Thursday 3pm-6pm, Friday 11am-6pm and Saturday 9am-1pm.   

FARM UPDATE: Fall is officially here and we're feeling it on the farm! We are loving the cooler temperatures, and we're grateful to be able to work outside on these gorgeous days! We have New England Pie pumpkins in shares again this week as well as ornamental corn. This dried corn is perfect for fall decorating but it is not edible. We also have a few boxes of persimmons that came off a broken limb. We were excited to learn that persimmons will ripen off the tree and will be harvesting some this week to offer in a few weeks. In the past we've left them on the tree until they ripened on their own which might not be until mid November! Happy fall, everyone! 

Thank you for your support!

Your farmers, 
Katie, Elizabeth, Brad, Christina, Kelly, Matt and Nate
