ARTfarm Saturday AM: peak season food JOY… 2/8/2025, 11am – 12 noon

More gorgeous heirlooms coming in from the field at ARTfarm!

Sorry for the late notice! Set your alarms for tomatomorrow, Saturday mid-morning farmstand! It will be first come first served.

As we keep saying in these cooler months, it’s a great time to ask about volunteering on the farm, or tell a friend if you know someone who might be interested in learning more about sustainable, regenerative gardening practices — we would love some help in the gardens and with a few other tasks as well. Profit margins for organic produce are surprisingly thin for a small mom and pop organic farm operation, and volunteers have always been crucial elements of our system.

If you have reached out to us about volunteering and we haven’t gotten back to you yet please be persistent. This is our busiest time of year. We could still use your help. Just reach out again!

No reservations; first come, first served. We really appreciate your support.

Eat the whole thing! These crunchy ARTfarm radishes are sold with fresh, delicious green tops. The tops are great rinsed, chopped, and dropped into, sprinkled over, or wilted on just about any savory dish you are making! Slightly peppery (less so when cooked), and oh-so-good for you!

ARTfarm Wednesday PM: SALAD options, heirloom TOMATOES, cukes, peppers, herbs and more… 2/5/2025, 5 – 6 PM

Gorgeous, sweet cucumbers at the peak of season. Our heirloom varieties are sweet and crunchy with very thin skins.

Christmas/winter winds are toughening up the tomato vines and encouraging more sweetness in the fruits! Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mid-morning are starting to be more regular. Still holding off on the timeslot reservations at this point. It will be first come first served Wednesday.

ARTfarm Wednesday PM SWEEEET SALAD MIX! & Dragonfruit Popup 10/2/24, 5 – 6pm

ARTfarm sweet mix comes from many different varieties of lettuces, grown organically and sustainably with stored rainwater irrigation! We interplant to naturally deter pests. And because it’s pretty. We can use volunteers right now, if you’re a non-tobacco user please get in touch! Come play in the gardens!

Wednesday’s October ARTfarm PopUp features sweet salad mix that’s extra tender from the rain. Also a few herbs and baby pineapple plants, and a few dragonfruit and sweet potatoes for the early birds.

As usual at this time of year, it’s been just a handful of people so it’s usually a good time to bring your gardening questions and chat with Farmer Luca. It’s also a great time to ask about volunteering on the farm, or tell a friend if you know someone who might be interested in learning more about sustainable, regenerative gardening practices — we are short a couple of people right now and would love some help in the gardens and with a few other tasks as well.
