Growing Season Update Aug 6, 2015

It is GARLIC HARVEST TIME! The mild temperature is perfect for garlic digging. The farmers have begun to dig out the bulbs and cure them. Select varieties will be ready in about 2 weeks.

The weather is staying just warm enough at night to kick tomato production in to gear! White Pine Farm and Law family Farm have several varieties available. They range from salad and slicers to bright orange and canning varieties!

Many of the farms (Law Family Farm, White Pine Farm and Whetham Organic Farm) are picking beans right now! Fresh beans are nutrient rich and add a beautiful variety of colors to your meal! All beans sold here at the CSA FARMERS MARKET are hand picked carefully to be sure not to break the beans. This helps to ensure the freshest quality and taste! It takes hours to harvest the tender beans hidden beneath the leaves.

Almars Orchard apples are now being harvested. They have Lodi apples. The ones they have available are weather kissed. These summer apples have a short shelf life. In a week or so expect to see Paula Reds and possibly Jersey apples if the quality is up to Almars standards!
