Dear Customers,
I am not one to complain about the weather or the season of growing. I believe that we are blessed with different things each year and that we should be thankful for what is given to us. We can try hard to grow the plants but there are always unseen forces of which you cannot predict or prevent. I am referring to the storm that hit the farm on Sunday. It brought strong winds, heavy rain and the worst HAIL. It is not a major catastrophe and we will be fine and have plenty of fresh veggies to go around. However, we will be very short on greens & peppers this week. I have complete confidence that in the next few weeks they will bounce back and we will be back on track but for now we will have to tough it out with tomatoes and other midsummer goodies. The hail is also the reason for the tiny holes or marks in most of the produce. As well as why we have only had peaches for the past few weeks. Never fear apples are on the way for next week. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working hard to get them all back on their feet. Until then enjoy the Tomato Explosion that has befallen us. It could be much worse.
Pictured above are Pickling Eggplant & San Marzano Paste tomatoes.
