Winter Squash first pick was this week. Acorn, Delicata, Butternut and Spaghetti squash are coming in.
I mentioned corn stalks last week. They are 12 plus feet high. The corn is just ripening so they will not be cut for decorations until late September.
Spinach will be planted for a fall crop this week.
The best days for pick up orders at the farm are Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The rest of the week we are picking for farmers markets and its more difficult to find the time to pick for orders, especially with the worker shortage. Our customized “you decide” CSA is very time consuming when there are worker shortages.
Be sure you have a confirmation that your order and pick up time are confirmed “OK”.
Milford Farmers market is Saturday on Elm Street, Milford, across from the antique shop, and the Agway. Hours are 10-1PM.
Peterborough farmers market is Wednesday 3-6 PM at the Peterborough Community Center.
Francestown Community Market is Friday from 4-6:30PM at the sheds in Francestown.
