Our first crop is coming in - Strawberry picking has commenced for the farm store. Pick your own will start soon so check back here on the blog, our website, or call the farm at 508-378-2270 for info. We still have flower and vegetable plants as well as fruit trees and various shrubs available for sale in the garden center. Dont forget mulch, potting soil, compost and fertilizer for your new or existing garden! The threat of frost is over (hopefully) and there is still time to plant tomatoes, potatoes, squashes, corn and others (June 12 being the average end date). Happy growing! ~CNS

Spring 2009 Update

Welcome back spring !! Lots happening at the farm...orchard expansion and renovation continues. Over 1000 new apple trees will be planted this April but it takes 3 or more years until they will be open for pick your own !! Its an investment we are making for the farm's future. Also, new this spring is a free Easter Egg hunt (weather permitting). The store is now open for all your seed, plants and gardening needs. We'll be set up for April 10 and 11 from 11am to 3pm. The eggs are something special too !! Sunny Bunny Easter Eggs (SunnyBunnyEasterEggs.com) are made by special folks ! Visit their website for more info about these amazing people. Hope to see you at the farm soon.

Late Fall Update

The harvest season maybe over but the farmstand is still open. We have our own fresh pressed cider, winter squashes, potatoes and late variety apples still available. Baking for Thanksgiving? Why settle for canned fillings at the supermarket when you can grab a basket of apples or a sugar pumpkin for that fresh pie, bread or whatever your tastebuds are asking you to make. Dont forget to pick up some jam, jelly, pickles, or local honey too! Happy Thanksgiving and hope to see you at the farm. ~C. Smith
