May 2022: OUR INAUGURAL SPRING SEASON!

On three weekends starting May 14th, 2022, we were open for business.  

 

We had spent the early spring growing many different varieties of SEEDLINGS, including tomatoes, vegetables, flowers and herbs.  ALSO, we had grown a variety of tasty SPRING SALAD GREENS in our high tunnel--our first veggie harvests of the year.  And finally, we fired up our FARM KITCHEN to crank out loads of FRESH CIDER DONUTS!  

 

It was lots of fun, and we're looking forward to doing even more in 2023.
