Week of July 25th

This week we have "baby" on the brain! The baby is still comfortably in Cory's belly, but all we can think about is the first time we will get to see her (or him). Cory is very ready, and doing very well. Our crops are hanging in there despite all the hot, hot days we have been having. Thankfully we are getting plenty of rain as well. We have started harvesting green/yellow beans again, and they are good! There should be limited quantities available for this week, as well as plenty of tomatoes and potatoes. The farm is finally getting back in order, and we are excited to say that most of the lawn business has been overtaken by the young man that has been working with me this season! It is amazing how much time is required here, thankfully we love it! Tuesday's drop-off will remain the same, and as always, anyone is welcome welcome to stop by the farm to pick up as well (recently mowed everything, so please take advantage of this opportunity! It would make all the sweating worthwhile!)
This week we have:
Tomatoes - $2.50/lb
Cherry/Roma Tomatoes - $3.00/pint
Potatoes - $2.00/lb (red/white)
French Fillet Beans - $4.00/lb (string-less)
Yellow Wax Fillet Beans - $5.00/lb (string-less)
Tomatillos - $2.00/lb
Swiss Chard - $2.00/bunch
Beets - $2.00/lb (great for juicing!)
Blueberries - $4.00/pint, $7.00/quart, $20/gallon
Squash - $1.50/lb
Cucumbers - $1.50/lb
Zucchini - $1.50/lb

Have a good week! Please email your order by Monday evening, or stop by anytime! Also, feel free to visit us at the farmers markets as well: Thursday in Blowing Rock 4-7pm (I here they have really good lemonade!), and Saturday in Boone 7-12pm.
