The crowds are slowing way down and the crazy lines are rapidly shrinking. Many of our seasonal customers have said goodbye for the season… Thanks to all of you for your support this winter!

Don’t forget, we are closing earlier on Wednesdays now, please join us between 3 PM and 4:30 PM, thank you!

So farming is a bit like weather forecasting. Only without the sophisticated radar and satellite systems and algorithms. We have tried in the past to predict when we will have certain crops or how many hours into a farmstand we will still be having certain items. We are not always correct, and the customer crowds have surprised us this year, but it is fun to try. With this caveat in mind, here are Farmer Luca’s predictions for this Saturday’s farmstand:

Lots and lots and lots of sweet salad mix, teen arugula, and teen spicy! Will have those three all the way till 12. We will also have some tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, carrots, beets, sweet bell peppers, poblanos, loads of Serranos, seasoning peppers, other chilies, cilantro, Italian basil, lemon basil, lots of parsley, garlic chives, dill, dandelion greens, bunches of rat tail radish pods, lettuce heads, some figs and some watermelon but not much of those last two, zinnia flowers, lemongrass, lots and lots of ginger and turmeric, assorted butternut winter squash slices, a few bunches of radishes, a few bunches of broccoli, and assorted cooking greens!

You may spy some of our Thai or Hawaiian baby ginger at Sejah Farm market on Saturday or at Quality Foods next week!

See you down the South Shore from 10 AM – 12 noon on Saturday! Thank you for your support!

Our apologies but we are going to make this one a little shorter than usual. We will be open tomorrow, Wednesday February 28th, from 3pm until 4:30pm. Not too many customers are showing up in the last hour and we have a long list of projects we need to get to during the precious daylight hours.

Wednesday’s list: sweet salad mix, teen arugula, teen spicy salad mix, a fair amount of cherry tomatoes, a few slicing and heirloom tomatoes, a few cucumbers, some watermelon, Italian basil, dill, cilantro, parsley, baby carrots, a few bunches of cooking greens, assorted chili peppers, sliced butternut, bunched rattail radish pods, garlic chives, scallions, zinnia flowers, and loads of our ginger and turmeric!

About those radish pods: they are delicious chopped up raw in a salad or thrown into a stirfry. They add a mildly spicy mustard-like kick plus texture and crunch.

We are located on the South Shore Rd. of St. Croix: due south of Canegata ballpark as the crow flies (between Ha’Penny Beach and the Boy Scout Camp). If you miss us today, come back on Saturday morning between 10 AM and 12 noon when we’ll have more fresh goodies for you!

Thanks for everyone’s continued support!

Wow, this season is blowing by like unsecured lawn furniture in a cat 5 hurricane, folks! And these powerful gusty winds are certainly bringing back memories of September 19th. Hope everyone’s recovery is continuing to progress.

Saturday farmstand: lots of baby arugula and baby spicy, lots of sweet salad mix, good amounts of cherry tomatoes, very small amounts of slicing tomatoes, some cucumbers, a few beets, sweet potatoes, carrots, lots of onions, a good amount of cilantro, dill, parsley, Italian basil, lemon basil, Thai basil, garlic chives, sage, lemongrass, and loads of ginger and turmeric, seasoning peppers, two types, assorted chilies, Serano pepper’s, poblano’s, sweet bell peppers, assorted cooking greens including various kales, large butternut squashes, watermelons, some figs, and zinnia flowers.

Strange new product of the week, for radish lovers: The rat-tail radish, serpent radish, or tail-pod radish is a plant of the radish genus Raphanus named for its edible radish-like seed pods.

We know customers are nervous about the end of tomato season. While this IS the time of year for the avalanche to slow down, we DO still have another planting in the ground. This final set of tomatoes is just beginning to ripen. Hopefully the wind and stink bugs will give us a break… also Grantley Samuel at GLG Produce will soon have some ripe tomatoes, and Sejah Farm is re-opening this weekend! They have some of our ginger on offer.
