It's very early on in the season, and I just found out about this farm, so I cannot speak to what they have later on when the crops are really coming in. Lord knows my zucchinis don't even have flowers, so being able to pick up a few locally grown ones is awesome. They just had one counter of veggies around midday, but the barn they are using for a store is gigantic, and there were empty baskets stacked in one area and empty tables in another, so I assume it must fill up.
The farm is gorgeous. There are beautiful rectangles of growing stuff everywhere. The people are friendly and they take credit cards, so that's super helpful, since I rarely have cash.
I got some nice tomatoes and cucumbers (the latter better than the former, but it is really early and some of those earlier tomatoes are less flavorful, so I'm sure they'll get better), some zucchini and summer squash and green beans. Looking forward to my dinners this week with all those fresh veggies!
They also had nice looking peppers (which we don't eat in this house due to a borderline allergy), and some potatoes, as well as some fruits. I was mainly after veggies, though. I understand they had lettuce somewhere, perhaps in the Coca Cola-style fridge I didn't check out, but from what I saw on the website, it was only romaine and iceberg. My favorite lettuce is Black Seeded Simpson, but the other "butter lettuces" in that family are good too. I dislike iceberg and am neutral on romaine.
I'll be back! This place is not far and it's also near Shaw Farm, where I like to buy milk, so it makes for a nice trip. Lots of good food to be had! read more
