Sorry for any customers who showed up on Monday. Hope we didn’t frighten you with the bee suit. We have now stopped our Monday farmstands until next season. However, in keeping with our Crucian culture, we have not yet taken down the signs that say that we are open on Mondays. We will try and get to that this weekend!

For today’s Wednesday 3-6pm stand we have baby spicy greens, baby arugula, sweet mix and spicy mix, broccoli leaves, mustard greens, dandelion greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, long beans, garlic chives, Italian basil, Thai basil, lemon basil, holy (tulsi) basil, sage, lemon grass, recao, ice cream, honey, fresh baked bread. AND — woohoo — fresh figs and pineapples!!

Saturday ARTfarm stand: Sweet mix, spicy mix, microgreens, bunched arugula, broccoli greens, kale, dandelion greens, Asian water spinach (Kan Kong), Italian basil, lemon basil, Thai basil, holy basil, lemongrass, garlic chives, cilantro, parsley, recao, sage, rosemary, onions, scallions, Bodhi beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, bread and bagels by Tess, ice cream, figs, zinnia flowers.

Big ups to the dozens of little teeny garden fairies who get up every Wednesday and Saturday at 5:30 AM and harvest this long list of stuff! We keep trying to get a picture of them for you but the wily, resourceful little beings wear these ridiculous hats made of assorted foliage that blend in with their surroundings. And, they’re only three inches tall. We’ll keep trying.

(Here’s Farmer Luca unloading another cart full of produce the fairies left him this morning!)

Oh yes, we are open today! From right now (3 PM) until 6 PM. A mountain of fresh sweet salad greens awaits you on the South Shore, along with spicy mix, baby salad mix, cucumbers, radishes, beets, onions, cabbage, pineapples, 4 kinds of basil, sage, dill, and the tail end of the tomatoes for the season. And, probably a bunch of other stuff we forgot to post about. It’s always a surprise at the ARTfarm! Come out and be surprised!

If you can figure out what’s different about Farmer Luca today from this photograph taken earlier in the season, tell us and get a free bag of sweet mix salad.
