Martin's Farmstand:  Strawberry Festival and U-Pick Patch update

The Strawberry Festival will run Saturday, June 29th from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

There will be food, games, tractor rides and fun all around!

If you have signed up to be a _volunteer _or to enter a creation into the “Jam-Off” there has been an email sent out with updated/detailed information last night! If you did not receive and email and you think you should have please let Desiree know via call/text/email. (315) 869-3910 – GreenwoodAcresFarmPotsdam@gmail.com

For the Jam-Off:

We will be putting a bite-sized sample of each Strawberry creation into a labeled small container and placed on a tray with the other entries. The plan is to allow the first 50 people here to “vote” for their favorite by ordering what they like most, second most, and so on. We will tally the votes and the person with the highest ranking recipe will receive a gift card for Martin’s Farmstand totaling $100.

Creations should be delivered to Martin’s Farmstand by Friday 6/28 at 11am. This will give us time to prepare them for voters- they will be kept in the cooler overnight.

U-Pick Strawberries

There will be u-pick this afternoon from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm or until all berries are picked. The rain has overripened some of the berries so pickers may have to work a bit harder as we near the end of peak season. Each vine may have three perfect berries for two that are over-ripened and that means that it may take a little longer to fill a quart than it did a week about but the berries are still pleantiful and delicious. And we look forward to seeing you!

Old99Farm Market:  Week of June 24th

Greetings,

I hope that you and your loved ones are healthy and happy.

We’re in the second week of 11 of Summer veggie CSA Season, you can sign up at any time at a pro-rated cost or order one offs as well as a la carte.

Our black currants are ripening nicely and are open for pick your own, kindly reach out to make an appointment if you are interested in picking them.

We’re still harvesting Garlic Scapes and we’ve got lots if you want them, they’re great for making pesto and using as a garlic clove alternative with a fresh and sharp flavour that’s in season. If you’re looking for more traditional garlic we have frozen minced garlic, and frozen garlic confit, as well as ground freeze dried garlic scape powder.

We had our first ripe tomato yesterday, so expect to have enough to add to the CSA and store in the next couple of weeks.

We have also re-stocked our ground beef, get it while it lasts, in time for summer BBQ season.

We’re holding interviews for our summer student position at the farm, if you know anyone under 30 that’s interested and looking for experience in organic sustainable farming please put them in touch with us.

Martin's Farmstand:  U-pick strawberries and raspberries this evening

We will be opening the strawberry and early red raspberry patches this evening (Monday June 24, 2024) from 5 till 8 pm. This is just after the peak of strawberry season. There is a large amount of berries out there that need picked this evening. If you want strawberries this year sooner is better than later as each picking from now on out will be smaller. After today the next picking time will be Wednesday starting at 2 pm and Saturday starting at 7 am. This is the last week of organized strawberry picking. Half price gleaning status will start this year on Tuesday July 2nd. There are lots of red raspberries ripe out in the patch. This seems to be about a week early from normal. The raspberries are available for u-pick on a first come basis this week anytime we are picking strawberries. Black raspberries are not ready yet. All the raspberries and blackcaps are really loaded. I will post more details when the black raspberries are ripe. Dad’s blueberries are also really loaded and he will be open for u-pick when they ready in a few weeks. More details to follow. Daniel

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market

Summer heat has already taken a toll on the garden. I am watering every day, but some of the plants are still getting stressed. Squash bugs have taken advantage of that so we are slowed down on summer squash for now until I replant. Pray for rain!!!
Tomatoes are beginning to ripen! I have cherry types and smaller plum and others coming in so those will go into the stand as they are picked.
As some of you know, my daughter runs the sourdough side of the market as Brown Bakehouse. My grandson was born with a condition that would require surgery and that time has come upon us. Baby Bo will go in for the procedure in July and will require some time in the hospital and recovery at home. We don’t know exactly what the care requirements will be yet, so this week will be the last until probably the end of July for sourdough orders.
I will also be taking a vacation next week so there will be no market July 1st- 7th. The farm stand will still be running with the help of my son and a garden helper.
Have a great week! And thank you for supporting our famr business!

Connie's Cornucopia:  Back In Stock

We will be picking up more Rock House products this Saturday. This means we will have in stock the following: Calyroad Chevre* cheese spread made from fresh goats’ milk*. We also will be picking up Cows Milk (that is Lightly pasteurized 145 degrees Fahrenheit and has not been homogenized*), this is the next best thing to raw milk. Also we will be picking up Beef patties (8 oz.) 2-pack which like all of our animal products are Pastured Raised (they went fast last time we had in stock).

We also will be picking up on Saturday: Blueberries, Squash Summer, Peppers Mojo, Jalapenos Peppers, and Okra. Get your orders in now so you make sure you get what you want, and you can pick up or we can deliver you your produce as soon as their picked. Our produce is on the plant until it is ready to eat (unlike others that are picked before it is ready and ripen somewhere else).

Please do your preserving now (canning or freezing), so when they are out of season you can continue to have the wonderful tasting produce.

Get your Microgreens also* fresh* or dried so you can add them to any part of your meal. Add it like you do when you add your seasonings to your meal.

I will also be going to Ellijay Mushrooms next week so please if you want any fresh mushrooms. Please put your order in by Monday of next week.

Elderberry, Bee Pollen, Honey and Maple Syrup are things that are great for your body in many ways.

Thanks
Connie

Champaign, OH:  Fourth Of July Market Note!!

I should have included this in my earlier weblog, but, next week is the July 4 holiday, which lands on Thursday!!

There will be NO MARKET, next week, so that everyone can have a bit of time off!

So, that means, you will need to get all that you may need, this week, so keep that in mind!!!

I guess I’ve been grooving along in my June cocoon, totally oblivious to how quickly July was approaching!!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
