This Week at the Market

Good morning! We’ve got such a bounty at this time of year! It’s nice to walk around the farm and see what all the hard work produces. It’s especially nice to see customers that come and go enjoyng the plethora of items we have to offer. I just want to take a moment and thank you all for continuing to make what I do worth all the effort. I am blessed to have such wonderful customers, neighbors and friends of the market!
This week, AB Farms is back with their beautiful garlic! I have them in the market and in the stand. Also, get our farm friend Chip’s Candy Apple Red Onions in the stand as well!
I hope you enjoyed the fresh picked corn we were lucky to get last weekend! I saved a bag for this week’s creamed corn, salad, and soup!
The watermelon is looking beautiful. I had one that weighed in at 35 ppounds! That one has sold, but there are 2 more smaller ones ready this week.
I am sad to say we have been battling a predator this past week. It has set its sights on our duck flock and has managed to leave us with only 3 healthy and one injured one left. I am hoping to get this thing trapped, but so far has eluded capture. Needless to say, duck eggs will be sparse for some time. Our chickens are coping with the heat and have slowed a bit in laying. We did double the flock size again from our spring hatch. They should begin laying next month!
Have a great week and stay cool!
