Opening June 21st!

Welcome to summer! The farm stand is opening June 21st. We'll have lots of lettuce and greens, garlic scapes, syrup, jams, granola and Brian McNeice's chicken. Peas are almost ready to pick and tomatoes are not far behind! The first raspberries should be coming along by the beginning of July and it looks like a bumper crop of blueberries. We're expecting all the berries to be a week or so early this year. We look forward to seeing you soon!
