Baby spicy salad mix at ARTfarm. These tender greens have less pepper flavor than mature mustards and arugulas. Mix this with sweet lettuce to add flavor and interest, use as a garnish or ‘bed’ for an entrée item for a fancy plating of a dish, stir it into a broth at the last minute or wilt it on top of a dish as a cooked green, or just enjoy it as a salad or snack right out of the bag! Our baby greens are the tenderest of treats.

As usual at this time of year, it’s a great time to ask about volunteering on the farm, or tell a friend if you know someone who might be interested in learning more about sustainable, regenerative gardening practices — we would love some help in the gardens and with a few other tasks as well.

We’re always on the lookout for volunteers to help with garden preparation. Come hang with Farmer Luca and learn some farming skills! Non-smokers/non-tobacco users please. Also – feel free to admire our new roadside sign! One down, one to go…
Stay cool, put a pinch of salt in everything, and see you Saturday 11:30am – 12pm!
ARTfarm sweet mix comes from many different varieties of lettuces, grown organically and sustainably with stored rainwater irrigation! We interplant to naturally deter pests. And because it’s pretty. We can use volunteers right now, if you’re a non-tobacco user please get in touch! Come play in the gardens!
Wednesday’s October ARTfarm PopUp features sweet salad mix that’s extra tender from the rain. Also a few herbs and baby pineapple plants, and a few dragonfruit and sweet potatoes for the early birds.
As usual at this time of year, it’s been just a handful of people so it’s usually a good time to bring your gardening questions and chat with Farmer Luca. It’s also a great time to ask about volunteering on the farm, or tell a friend if you know someone who might be interested in learning more about sustainable, regenerative gardening practices — we are short a couple of people right now and would love some help in the gardens and with a few other tasks as well.

The last of our super sweet longan will be available for sale and free tastes are available.
Juicy “dragon eye” longan fruits, related to rambutan and lychee, have a leathery outer skin that pops off to reveal a juicy sweet pulp over a hard, non edible black glossy seed that will sprout a new tree! These are very sweet fruits high in Vitamin C!
September plum will also be available!
Young fiddle wood native trees are available!
Hopefully some late season big Keitt mangoes will be available from Dennis Nash!!
5 – 5:30pm!!! Come and pick up some of nature’s vitamins!
