Martin's Farmstand: U-pick info for Monday June 19
We will open the strawberry patches for u-pick tomorrow morning (June 19, 2023) starting @ 7 am. This is still the beginning of the season. The berries are nice but you will travel quite a bit of row and also look at a lot of green tip berries. I estimate that there may be 400-500 quarts to pick in the morning. I judge that it is likely that we will close the patch to incoming pickers about 8 am. The farm stand will be open in the morning only as long as we are there for u-pick customers. It will then be closed for the rest of the day. We are closed on Mondays this summer except for strawberry mornings. The farmstand is open Tuesday- Saturday from 10 am – 6 pm. The garlic scapes are ready so enjoy them during the few weeks that their season lasts.
Hours for u-pick are Monday starting at 7 AM; Wednesday, starting 2 PM (no morning picking on Wednesdays); Saturday, start 7 AM. This repeats through out the whole season. The patch closes when the berries are all picked or at 6 PM. Daniel

Foothills Market: The Market is Open!
Last summer, my farmer and I took a trip to Ireland and Scotland, where we encountered “Neeps and Tatties” (turnips and potatoes). Rather than being the white turnips I knew from home, the neeps were a soft gold color. This put me on a search for golden turnips, and this week, Foothills Market has the results of that search available on the market.
You can also pick up some fresh tatties, either white or red. In Scotland, the vegetables were paired with haggis, but I don’t think anyone will mind if you were to pair your neeps and tatties with a cut of beef from the market! Make your selections between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., and we’ll have your order ready for pickup on Thursday.
Eat something fresh this week!
Berea Gardens: Market open

Yalaha, FL: It's Summer, We are basically Shut down for cleaning.
Lettuce is done. If you have special requests for other things that I don’t have listed as available, write in the comments when you make an order or just message me and I will see what is still acceptable by then. We will probably be down to just the micros, shoots and Hot weather stuff for the next several months.
As we head into summer I sometimes get Lax with opening/closing the Market. If That Happens, feel free to message me to see what is available. I sometimes just get Lazy since we have minimal stuff available and get so few orders in the summer anyway. The cool season crops give up but there are sometimes others things that hang on (wild tomatoes) or the microgreens which I can grow most of them year round.
The regular ordering window is now through Thursday 8am for Friday-Sunday pickup. (Or check with me [email protected] or text 407-342-8515 if you might want to pick up sooner or for special arrangements, I’m usually flexible.)
I may still be able to take orders after Thursday Morning but can’t guarantee availability of things as I may have already packed them for the Restaurants.
Ordering window is Monday Afternoon (or when I open it) through Thursday Morning and pick up will be Friday-Sunday by appointment until we expand more, Please indicate when you would like to pick up when you place your order.
Remember to tell me when you want to pick up! (and if I don’t reply to confirm within a day, bump my e-mail or text me 407-342-8515. Though I have cleaned up my e-mail so hopefully I won’t Miss Anyone.)
Sign in to order. https://yalaha.locallygrown.net/market
You have to sign in to see the add to cart button. Then set the number and click the add to cart button on the items you want to buy (it is the little picture right next to the quantity box.) Remember you need to check out before your order will be placed.
Remember to let me know when you want to pick up on Sat or maybe even Friday late afternoon or on Sunday. (If I don’t send you an e-mail confirmation of your order and pick up time, please make sure you checked out and completed your order.)
