It’s the return of Wednesday afternoon ARTfarmstands! Come out and see us this afternoon, October 26th, from 3 to 5:30pm!

Yellowish green, pinecone-like sugar apples (sweetsop) of various sizes in a basket.
Yellowish green, pinecone-like sugar apples (sweetsop) are eaten fresh and ripe. Kids love the sweet flavor, and the seeds are large, hard and shiny. Like watermelon seeds, they're perfect for spitting at your sister.

We’ve got sweet and spicy salad mixes, microgreens, baby arugula, asian water spinach, lemongrass, garlic chives, fresh big bunches of basil, sweet ripe papayas, ripe local bananas, sugar apples, limes and fresh cut-to-order coconuts you can drink with a straw at the farmstand or take home and chill in the fridge.

We also have Black Olive trees, and other native tree varieties, for sale in one and three gallon pot sizes. These are drought and disease tolerant shade trees. Ask for more information at the stand!

A drought tolerant, mature Black Olive tree has a wide canopy that provides a lot of shade.

Last ARTfarm Wednesday Stand for a few weeks! 4:30-5:30pm

This will be the last Wednesday stand until mid-October. Got a few projects we need to kick it to! Today we have microgreens, asian water spinach, sugar apples and coconuts. We love you, come see our chalk drawings and baby fig trees!

Nature’s Answer to the Juicebox at ARTfarm, 10am-noon Today!

We have amazingly sweet coconuts you drink right out of the nut! If you haven’t had fresh coconut juice right out of the husk, you haven’t tried what man has attempted to recreate in plastic pseudo-nutrition with Gatorade and juice boxes.

Fresh coconut juice is locally known as a kidney cleanser. It’s full of trace minerals and potassium. In wartime when plasma was not available, fresh coconut water was used in IV drips to hydrate patients in hospital.

We can cut your coconuts at the farmstand for you to drink immediately, or almost open – take a few home and stick them in the fridge. We keep a whole pitcher full of coconut water in our fridge. There is nothing better for rehydration.

For your veggie pleasure we have fresh harvested arugula, baby spicy mix, microgreens, asian spinach, garlic chives, basil, lemongrass, mangoes, avocados, Feel I’s ice cream and Sweetface chocolate!

For your yard we have native trees!

See you at the farmstand!

TGIW: Tropical Goodness, It’s Wednesday at ARTfarm!

We’re open today from 4:30pm to 5:30pm, selling microgreens, water spinach, garlic chives, basil, lemongrass, mangoes, avocados, ONE pineapple, and precut RIDICULOUSLY SWEET COCONUTS! Available chilled, with a straw, even, for a posh resort experience. Luca will chop them open for you if you’re a pianist, a touch typist, or otherwise value having all ten digits.

Also Feel I’s icecream and Sweetface chocolates!

And, because of all the rain, we have pineapple slips and native trees for your tropical garden! Please ask about different beautiful varieties of drought, disease and pest- tolerant trees.
