ARTfarm Wednesday Afternoon Farmstand! 2/11/2026, 4:30 – 5:30PM! Seconds tomatoes! Happy eggs!

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.

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
  • Cucumbers (Japanese)
  • Kaffir lime leaves and limes (fruit)

Early Birds

  • Heirloom and slicer tomatoes
  • Watermelon (yellow and red, cut and whole)
  • French breakfast radishes with edible green tops
  • Large pink radishes with edible green tops
  • Green sweet peppers
  • Italian basil
  • Cilantro
  • Dill
  • Small leaf oregano
  • Lemongrass

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