Produce, First Week of June, 2020

Zucchini – Delicious!

We are starting to get yellow squash and zucchini almost daily, so give us a call if you would like some of that deliciousness. We are also getting cucumbers, both pickling and salad/slicking. We use them interchangeably.

Okra – what everybody is waiting for – is just beginning. If we get a little rain, or set the sprinkler on it we will start to have saleable amounts by June 15.

We also want to make you aware of a few lesser vegetables that are now available that most don’t even think of: bulb onions, Elephant garlic, chives, and dill sprigs. We don’t usually have them on display, so ask if you would like some. We would also be happy to pinch you a bit of spearmint or chocolate mint if that enters into your menu planning.

Yellow Straightneck

Tomatoes and Peppers are still a couple of weeks off, but it looks to be a good crop this year. After last years total crop failure, the arrival of tomato season will be a much anticipated event. Stay tuned.

This looks to be the best growing season in some years, if we get a little timely rain, and the locusts don’t descend. As always, please give us a call or text before coming out. We like to be prepared when you get here. Some items available yesterday will be sold out today, and back available tomorrow. We cannot emphasize this enough you need to call or text.
