Availability for September 6

Welcome to September! The past couple days have been a much welcomed relief from the recent heat wave, and I hope the transition into Fall is underway.

There are 60 vegetables listed this week, and a full two thirds of them are either tomatoes or peppers. The heat wave knocked back most every thing else. Still, there are 239 items listed at the moment, including several new items. And, if the weather keeps up, there ought to be another flush of most of the summer crops right into October.

New this week are several peppers, a tomato mix, gourds, and several cuts of lamb from Shady Brook Farm in Madison County. Tink’s Beef has also added a few additional cuts to their listings. The cooler weather has also revived the shiitake mushrooms from Double B Farm.

We conclude our summer Farmer For a Day series this weekend at Fancy Feather Farm out near Bowman, GA. The event is officially filled to capacity, but this farm may be able to handle a few extra folks. We’ve left the reservations open, so if you want to come out Saturday, add reservations to your order, and if there’s room we’ll let you know.

Thanks for all your continued support. We’ll see you on Thursday from 4:30 to 8pm at Gosford Wine!
