And the pickles are growing!!!

07/07/2020

Just waiting for some heat....pickling cukes are growing well!

The ASH berry boys are running the pickle patch this year to keep themselves busy during this pandemic summer after their cadet camps were canceled.

We are supervising as we grew pickles many times before ceasing operations.

We want everyone to be clear that they will be picking cukes every morning once harvest starts. They will be picking 3"- 6" and there will be no size sorting. A well picked patch grows nice cukes so I'm sure everyone will be happy.

Unfortunately we don't have dill so please source dill early to avoid scrambling at the last minute.

Just a few guideline to follow with the bins:

Bins are to be picked up at the farm between 9:45 - 10:15am - please be on time as we have other things to attend to - PLUS we want you to get your bin as fresh as it can be!

If you claim a bin, please be respectful and pick It up - we had a no show today - others were interested in purchasing one.

Any cancellations must be in by 7pm the evening before so others can claim a bin and so that we know how much to pick - we will only pick what is ordered.

Please bring cash.

We will be posting the day or evening prior to a pick-up - watch for a post to claim a bin. Once claimed your bin will be picked the next morning.

We are happy to pick and share the food we grow. We appreciate the continued support while we figure out the best way to get our healthy food to you all! Thank you!

Stay tuned we will be posting tonight for a pick tomorrow!

07/28/2018

Pick-up at the farm tomorrow - Sunday, July 29 at 10 am. If this seems like too much food - go halfers with a friend!

This is how it works:

Comment below starting at #1 all the way to #10. If you are the first person to comment, #1 would be your number - you just bought a bin and will pick up tomorrow at the farm by 10 am...Second person comments #2, and so on, until we hit #10. Once we hit #10, all the bins have been sold, If you want an add-on of flowers, add that to your comment. Bring cash to pay when you pick up your bin.

There will be no need to purchase a bin - food will come in boxes that can be recycled.

If this flies folks, then we will do it again - keep posted!

Thanks everyone!
