Martin's Farmstand: U-pick strawberries Wednesday @2 pm
I am just returning from scouting the strawberry fields. As one approaches the patch the sweet aroma of ripe strawberries is floating in the evening summer air. I tasted a few. They are delicious. We are opening the fields for u-pick starting at 2 pm tomorrow (Wednesday June 15,2022) NO MORNING PICKING ON WEDNESDAYS. Picking conditions are excellent with thousands of lbs. ready to pick now. We are in the early main part of strawberry season. In the next 10-14 days 90% of the crop will come in. Come and get them. We also have picked berries at the farm stand for those of you that do not wish to pick. Daniel
Grumpy Goat: Weblog Entry
We are open for ordering this week. Please note that I zeroed out a lot of the leafy greens. They aren’t enjoying this heat wave and I’m not sure if I will have any by the weekend or not. So come shop in person Friday to see what has made it through!
As far as new items listed : garlic scapes are coming in strong, fennel heads are just big enough, chard has recovered from the rabbit frenzy, and the fava beans are here – they are a super short season crop so get them while you can!
Keep the look out next week for the first of the kohlrabis.Stay cool out there!

I know that most of us dealt with the over night storms, and if you were like me, a three hour power outage, so just like you…I am rushing to also get my market order in!
FYI…all Cosmic and Hippie and the Farmer items were on Vacation Mode, and will also be in vacation mode for next week, as I have two full weekends ahead of me that need all of my attention!

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market: Market Open
Welcome to Georgia summer heat!! Whew, this week will be a hot one! We will be holding off on soups for a while except when we do the gazpacho and cold varieties. This week we have added more salads – perfect for Father’s Day picnics!
The veggies are still heavier on the squash, but I’m getting a few cucumber and red okra now! What I have will go in the stand as they are picked.
The heat is also taking a toll on the chickens. They are beginning to slow down a bit, so if you normally get them from the stand, you may want to preorder here in the coming weeks.
Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads out there! I am blessed to still have mine!!
Thanks for supporting local farms like us!
