Summer Fruitfest at ARTfarm, 10 AM to 12 noon!

We are sleepy at ARTfarm this morning. We had to get up at 11 o’clock last night and go out and pollinate the dragonfruit. And one of our neighbor’s cows got out early early early this morning, and more are trying, so take it easy and enjoy the 35mph speed limit on South Shore Rd. please!

Saturday morning at ARTfarm: Lots of lettuce salad mix mixed with micro, lots of cucumbers, lots of papaya from Solitude Farm, microgreens, baby arugula, mangoes from Alex, three luscious dragonfruit from ARTfarm harvested this morning, recao, garlic chives, figs, breads and fresh baked bagels from Tess (they make incredible French toast, thanks for asking), local raw honey from Wanda at the Wright Apiary.

Summer Corn!! ARTfarm 10am – 12noon

Okay, the headliner at ARTfarm today is sweet corn. SWEET CORN. We have these incredible 7 foot tall plants that grew in a heartbeat with all the rain in May, and the corn is so sweet that we would seriously classify this as a dessert item! 100% non-GMO, people. Some corn today, a bigger harvest on Wednesday.
