ARTfarm Wednesday Afternoon Farmstand: 4/29/2026, 4:30PM – 5:30PM

Companion planting is a key technique in permaculture and chemical-free farming.

We are moving into the slow season. No more regular Saturdays for a bit so schedule yourself to visit the farm for WEDNESDAY’s ARTfarm farmstand. Lots of sweet and spicy/sweet salad mixes for Wednesday customers, plus treats for early birds including fennel, a few slicer cherry and heirloom tomatoes, hot and mild peppers, herbs and limes, snacking sweet carrots and cut flowers!

ARTfarm papayas are SO SWEET! Many folks shy away from papaya, but the fruit contains helpful enzymes to improve digestion. A papaya skin poultice was an old remedy for cuts and burns, and the leaves juiced are just about the bitterest thing you’ll ever consume but is taken to build platelets, to fight mosquito-borne rheumatic fever diseases like dengue and chikungunya. The unripe fruit makes a delicious slaw. If you haven’t been a fan, it is worth another try!

We are moving into the slow season. No more regular Saturdays for a bit so schedule yourself to visit the farm for WEDNESDAY’s ARTfarm farmstand. The lines are getting shorter! Lots of sweet and spicy/sweet salad mixes for Wednesday customers, plus treats for early birds including baby arugula, baby spicy salad mix, a few slicer and heirloom tomatoes, hot and mild peppers, herbs and limes, snacking sweet carrots and cut flowers!
