Many rainy days! Petrichor’s a memory. Tiny green things grow.
Thursday pop up stand, Thursday instead of Wednesday? Change is a constant.
Five inches of rain is great for the pastures, trees and water table, but it can throw off our schedule for harvesting salad greens!
Still raining this week. April showers should be bringing some extra crops in the next few weeks. Come on out for a one hour Thursday (instead of Wednesday) afternoon pop-up farmstand from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at ARTfarm on the South Shore.
We look forward to seeing you! Thanks for all your rain dancing.

All kinds of fruit are delicious on salads (and maybe, some malabar chestnuts too!). We have so much salad! The perfect little rain showers and cooler days have made it possible. Come on out for a one hour Wednesday afternoon pop-up farmstand from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at ARTfarm on the South Shore. Thanks again to Chef Lisa Coates for the haiku inspo.
As last week, there are farm goodies to be had as the tomato season wanes and we get into the fruitier time of year. Try a small bag of malabar chestnuts – these hazelnut sized treats are pre-hulled for you – beautiful to handle and look at, with a delicious delicate soft nut inside the stripy outer skin (you can easily crack on a solid surface and peel with your fingers). They can be enjoyed raw or roasted or cooked or made into flour… a fun snack.
