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!

Plenty for All

  • Sweet salad mix (tender, and sweet from the rain)
  • Teen arugula
  • Baby arugula
  • Baby spicy
  • Sweet and spicy salad mix
  • Slicer tomatoes
  • Cherry tomatoes

  • Kaffir lime leaves and limes (fruit)

  • Lemongrass

Grateful for your support! See you Saturday 11am – 12 noon!

ARTfarm Wednesday fruitynutty SALAD Pop-Up! 4/17/2024 – 5:30pm – 6:30pm

Pomegranate fruits!
Sweet, tart, juicy and healthy
Crunch the little seeds.

Wednesday pop up stand,
Sweet yellow watermelon,
Freak out your taste buds.

malabar chestnuts
Malabar chestnuts, or saba nuts, can be cooked or eaten raw. Yum!

All kinds of fruit are delicious on salads (and maybe, some malabar chestnuts too!). We have so much salad! The perfect little rain showers and cooler days have made it possible. Come on out for a one hour Wednesday afternoon pop-up farmstand from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at ARTfarm on the South Shore. Thanks again to Chef Lisa Coates for the haiku inspo.

As last week, there are farm goodies to be had as the tomato season wanes and we get into the fruitier time of year. Try a small bag of malabar chestnuts – these hazelnut sized treats are pre-hulled for you – beautiful to handle and look at, with a delicious delicate soft nut inside the stripy outer skin (you can easily crack on a solid surface and peel with your fingers). They can be enjoyed raw or roasted or cooked or made into flour… a fun snack.
