ARTfarm Wednesday Afternoon Farmstand! 2/11/2026, 4:30 – 5:30PM! Seconds tomatoes! Happy eggs!

Los Segundos. These later season, slightly blemished seconds tomatoes may not have the looks of a perfect tomato, but the flavor is even richer! Use them chopped, sliced or in soups and fresh salsas; can them, roast them, blend them in sauces… still delicious!

Hope everyone has been staying warm in the big chill. We’ve had some 72ºF days here. Lots of rain has caused a lot of tomatoes to split or crack. So there will be some bags of seconds tomatoes available tomorrow!

Tomorrow afternoon’s Wednesday ARTfarm stand features carrots, scallions, Mongoose & Zinnia eggs from happy winter hens, as well as slicer, heirloom and cherry tomatoes, watermelon for early bird customers, veggies and a diverse selection of sweet and/or spicy salad greens!

We’ll see you Wednesday 2/11/26 from 4:30 to 5:30PM! First come, first served. We should be on the regular for the rest of this month with Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Longans at ARTfarm. These addictive little fruits pack a sweet crunchy juicy punch inside a leathery outer skin.

ARTfarm Open today 5/14/2025 Wednesday 5 to 6 PM, plenty of all the good things

Hey folks, despite the wetness and rain Farmer Luca will be open 5 to 6 this afternoon with lots of goodies, veggies and watermelon. Enjoy!

Red radishes with green tops
Ravishing Radishes – They grow faster than the bugs can keep up with! The crunchy bottoms can be eaten raw (peppery) or used as a root vegetable cooked (mild). The tops are more nutritious than the root, and can be used as salad or cooking greens. Some folks make smoothies with them! Don’t waste an inch of this mighty veggie! We love them sliced thin in oil and vinegar with a pinch of salt.
