Martin's Farmstand:  U-Pick Monday June 17th 5 P.M.

We have a fair amount of berries ready for this evenings picking. The patch was picked clean on Saturday and we would like to remind customers that any berries with white tips and lighter in color remain in the patch for the next U-pick. It is a beautiful day and the next few days are forecasted as incredibly hot. Come out and enjoy the evening with us before the sun becomes something to avoid the next few days. Stay safe and make sure that you stay hydrated!

The Stand is normally closed on Mondays however for the public and U-pick customers both the stand will be open this evening at 5 P.M. until the picking is done!

Hours for u-pick are Monday starting at 5 PM; Wednesday, starting 2 PM (no morning picking on Monday’s and Wednesdays); Saturday, starting 7 AM. This repeats through out the whole season. The patch closes when the berries are all picked or at 8 pm on Monday and 6 PM on Wednesday and Saturday.
When you arrive you do not need to stop at the stand to weigh your containers if you know the empty weight already. Also you do not need to stop if you are picking into standard Quart containers.
You have the option of bringing your own containers or buying empties from us. Quart boxes 25 cents each. If you are buying empty containers from us please pay when you get them rather than after you are done picking to minimize confusion as to what is going on.
NO DOGS in the field or stand areas. We will be using the same random picking pattern that we did last year. This means that you may start anyplace you wish in the patches that are open as long as you are not cutting in front of someone. It is mandatory that when you are picking that all the ripe berries are picked as you move No roaming or grazing type picking. A section of row must either be picked or not picked when you leave. We will be scouting the patch and keep suggesting where you will find good picking.
Pricing u-pick: $5 per Quart if less than 8 quarts and $3.40 per quart if more than 8 quarts; $27.20 for an 8 quart tray. All containers are expected to well filled but not heaped. We will adjust prices up or down as needed for over or under-filled containers. By the pound price is $2.30/# (limited to bigger containers or larger amounts). If you pay by credit card there is a 3% surcharge added to the above prices and you will need to use the inside checkout station rather than outside express options. Matthew

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market

I hope all the Father’s had a wonderful weekend full of fun and laughter! It sure was a hot one! This Friday is officially summer and it is here in extreme heat! We really could use some rain to get those tomatoes going! I have been watering so they helped along.
We have beans, cucumbers, squash and peppers coming in and some cherry tomatoes so look for those in the stand! The onions are almost cured, so they are out as well.
As for our other market products, I highly recommend McKinnon’s Cocktail kits! In the heat, I love a margarita and the Jalepeno Pineapple makes a great one!
Grilling burgers? Try Brown Bakehouse Sourdough Burger Buns!
For snacking, I am loving Goodness Gracious Granola when I’m too busy to come in and eat.
Need hydration? Try our healthy Switchel for a natural option! On sale this week for $2.75 for an 8oz jar.

Have a great week and stay cool!
