Fresh heirloom tomatoes are at their sweetest at the peak of the season after the rains have mostly stopped!

There’s a natural ebb and flow with the season. For this mid-week stand, we’ll have an abundance of salad greens and more tomatoes and watermelon. Come see us tomorrow afternoon.

Cilantro in the gardens goes to flower and turns into coriander seed, eventually. Dill also puts up similar “fireworks” shaped flower clusters and has a strong fennel scent. We like to use them in flower arrangements!

Tomatoes and salad! Tomato seconds available for the early birds, so rock your sassy secret salsas, sauces and soups!

Once again, enjoy the bounty of this winter season. Conditions are starting to dry up on the South Shore, which will make the flavors more pungent, but also means it may be a shorter season. So don’t miss out! Come see us tomorrow afternoon.
