Farm Updates
In this week’s shares we’re serving up beautiful cabbage heads in honor of last night’s first supermoon of 2025.
This one was especially magical, being a Harvest Moon, which is the first full moon following the fall equinox, making it a true harvest supermoon. Historically, this moon gave farmers extra light in the evening hours to bring in their autumn crops, marking one of the most celebrated moments of the season.
As we settle deeper into fall, the treats just keep coming. Fresh ginger remains plentiful in the tunnels, and we’re still seeing October cucumbers. They are the perfect crisp companion to your salad greens, and their vines have become a favorite resting spot for the local tree frogs.
The tomato tunnel is beginning to slow down as cooler nights creep in, but we expect at least one more solid week of vine ripened tomatoes. After that, they will begin to blush more slowly and finish ripening on your kitchen counter.
After this week, we will be entering the final five weeks of our Main Season CSA, and there is still plenty to look forward to in each of them. Butternut squash, beets, savoy cabbages, carrots, and sweet potatoes are all on the way. We will begin harvesting and curing the sweet potatoes over the next couple of weeks to help them develop their signature sweetness and ensure a long storage life. We expect to have them ready for those final shares of the season.
U-pick
Updated weekly
U-picking Hours: Monday - Saturday 9:00-6:00 p.m.
Closed Sundays
Please note you can drive around the gates if closed by continuing straight towards the Residence and then turning left at the corner of the fence to head back towards the 3 large barns
Pepper Field in (D2)
This is the same field as those larger tomatoes that were on u-pick found in front of the 3 barns
Poblanos & Sweet Frying peppers
Larger flower field (F)
Right in front of the CSA in the large fence by parking lot
Zinnias front 2 rows
Sunflowers 3 rows further back- only walk in the sunflower rows to not step on the plants growing beside them. Please do not pick from these neighboring crops. These were used not just as cut flowers, they also came in handy to draw more pollinators to crops nearby.
Cherry Tomatoes (F)
Chilis (F)
Just below the cherry tomatoes
The varieties that have ripened are listed below; there will be a couple more later season varieties that are still to come. The only peppers that are generally picked green are the Jalapeno’s and Serrano’s which both will also ripen to red.
