Berea Gardens:  Market Open for Ordering


Hi Friends,

Opening early again today so we can get to the field and dig the rest of our potatoes before the rains soak us this week. We have some beautiful sweet corn on the menu this week and a few large, lovely cantaloupes.

Looks like we might experience some high water for Wednesday, but we will be here and if you can’t make it safely we will hold your order until you can. You may pick up at will on Thursday or Friday. Stay safe this week.

Blessings,
Bob & Lynnita

Martin's Farmstand:  Weblog Entry Do not let California feed New York


We have an abundance of really good watermelon and cantaloupe right now and too many nice tomatoes. There are a lot of good number one tomatoes that are going into canners today just because there are so many. No need to order ahead on canners, just come and get them! Beans are abundant now. We also have lots of lettuces and a long row of spinach that is ready to cut and so much more. Do not let California feed New York in the summer. Please support your local farmers. We need you and the time may come that you need us. Did you know that seeded watermelons have a much better flavor (most of the time) than seedless melons? Did you know that we have soils and a climate at spots here in northern New York that can grow a very good watermelon? We have watermelons here today that I am very happy with. They are not just good. They are excellent and we guarantee them to be so. Daniel
