Organically grown here on the South Shore for you: sweet salad mix, spicy salad mix, baby arugula, microgreens, fresh crispy cucumbers, sweet corn (Farmer Luca says this is the sweetest corn yet from ARTfarm), purple yard-long beans, freshly harvested onions and beets with their tops, a few late-season slicer tomatoes, Italian basil, chives, recao, lemongrass, tamarind pods, papayas, passionfruit, pineapple, and fresh Mediterranean figs. From our partner farmers today: mangoes and the last of the mamey apple from Tropical Exotics, tropical fruit coconut-based vegan ice cream from Feel-I, fresh brown eggs from Marti Gotts, and raw local honey from Errol Chichester.

ARTfarm Wednesday, 3–6 p.m. today!

ARTfarm_figatfarmstandSometimes, we run out of art for Art Wednesday, so we just tell you about figs. If anyone tried our figs at the Taste of St. Croix, they will be shocked to know that they are EVEN TASTIER NOW! Because the weather has been dry, the fruits have higher sugar content and are absolutely sweet. Treat yourself to some delicious organically grown figs today at the stand! 3–6 this afternoon on South Shore Rd.

Things are getting fruitier as the summer beckons from the wings. Other treats we have in store for you today: Sweet salad mix, teen spicy salad mix, teen arugula, lettuce heads, onions, carrots, cucumbers, cilantro, garlic chives, Italian basil, holy basil, lemon basil, dill, kale, collard greens, broccoli greens, cherry tomatoes, heirloom tomatoes, slicing tomatoes, lots of aforementioned fresh Mediterranean figs, maybe pineapple, yellow passionfruit, raw local honey, and citrus: sour oranges and kafir limes. Hope to see you this afternoon!

Last ARTfarm Wednesday for Summer: Microgreens!

Happy sleepy August ARTfarm Wednesday! We’ll be open Saturday mornings, but this is our last Wednesday farmstand for the summer, 3-6 this afternoon: Cucumbers, microgreens, long bodhi beans, recao, garlic chives, lots of sweet Mediterranean figs, pineapple, lots of trees, mangoes from Tropical Exotics, papaya from Solitude Farm, vegan coconut ice cream from I-Sha, honey from Wanda, bread from Tess!

We still have quite a few young fig trees. Get a little piece of the Mediterranean in your yard and enjoy your own fresh fruits.
