Summer Marches On

What a comfortable summer we have had.  The weather has helped immensely in extending our strawberry season.  Alas, all good things must end and we have now closed our pick your own strawberry fields.  The boys may have some at their farmers' market booths but they are starting to focus on other fruits.
We've been making jam with our frozen berries... a good way to continue to enjoy the berries. You can find it in our market.

Our farm will now be open weekends only except for booked groups and scheduled birthday parties.  We will reopen weekdays mid September.

Check out our website for more details on our Joy of Summer events page.

Strawberries, Peas and Chickens....

are still headliners at the farm.  Our crop of berries is still amazing and plentiful for picking and fresh picked as well.  Our late season berries are just starting to turn red so we may have another two weeks in the strawberry season.

Our second planting of peas is now ready for picking.  They are young and sweet.  I like them as a snack and they would be great in lunches.

You'll find a good supply of peas and strawberries in our market as well as at our booths at the farmers markets the boys attend.

Our first lot of free range, grain fed chickens are returning to the farm Friday dressed and ready for dinner.  They are whole roasting chickens and their flavour is fantastic, making for a great family meal.  I have a limited number available.
