Summertime is often a time of drought on St. Croix. We are in a level three drought in July-August 2026.
I hope everyone enjoyed that huge buck harvest moon this week. Despite the drought, select irrigation continues and we’ve got a few productive green patches on the farm.
We’ll be open SATURDAY 10:30am to 11:30am, and Farmer Luca will be there with summer salad sweet mix, fruits, flowers and more! Check the list below for all the details!
We’ll see you Saturday 8/1/26 from 10:30AM to 11:30AM! First come, first served.

Throwback!! Farmer Christina in 2015 celebrating the love! Who needs chocolate when you can have CHERRY TOMATOES!!!! A sweet thoughtful and healthy Valentine’s treat!
The extra rain means the tomato plants are putting on extra fruit. The next set of watermelons is nearly ready, and our sweet south shore papayas are getting big and will soon start to ripen. And the mango trees are starting to bloom, yay for the bees!
See you Saturday February 14th, 2026, starting at 10:30AM!
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.
