Here Is What We Do
If all goes well, around mid-spring we should be able to open the season with our own:
- maple syrup and honey
- morels and ramps,
- strawberries, asparagus and greens, and
- the fruits of last years’ vineyard and hops yard.
- lavender
- our own tomatoes, peppers, and beans, then
- our neighbors’ sweet corn around early July
- our neighbors’ peaches and (our own peach pies) around early August
Starting around Labor Day we should have :
- apple cider (and pies)
- Squash, pumpkins, (and pumpkin bread and pumpkin pies)
Plus, this year, crafts, hardwood and surprises are available. And, maybe, next year our own lavender and truffles.For all this, please check our facebook and its cousins for specific dates and details. Thank you for reading!
