Okay, is it just me that can’t believe that next weekend is Labor Day weekend? Where did the summer go? The saving grace is that we are in the prime of the season. Who can resist the amazing flavor of a fresh-picked tomato or cucumber? We will be bringing both of these summer favorites to market tomorrow but of course that is not all. In addition, we will be bringing the following items to market:

Beets.
We have some beauties coming to market and you will want to pick up a bunch (or two).
“What would I do with them?”, you ask.
Take a look at some of these recipes for some beet inspiration.

We have a new farm dog at Blue Skys Farm and his name is Cinnamon. He is the pride and joy of our volunteer Erica and we fell in love with him immediately and I think you may too!
This little cutie even made friends with Big Train Farm’s own Sally Lee while he was visiting. It was a sight to watch them play. I think that both dogs will sleep well tonight.

Hope to see you at the market!
