We have many varieties of potatoes coming out of the ground, and if you have never had freshly dug gourmet potatoes you don’t know what you are missing. Like most of the grocery store produce commercially produced potatoes have lost much of their flavor. You woun’t believe the difference and there is also a difference between varieties.

Blackberries are making their entrance as well as the farm that grows them, Jay’s Garden Variety, located on Sand Mtn. in Henegar. Boy have we been waiting, They make a great shakes, oh heck they are great with anything.

Peaches are also being offered by a small farm in Flintville Tn. Called Destinies Acres.

We wish to provide our members with as much information as we can so you can make an informed decision about your food. The peaches have been sprayed once this season, much less than other orchards. Stone fruits are hard to grow and many say you can not grow them here without being sprayed because of the curcullio (a worm that evades other control methods) Our grower has tried very hard to grow them this year without spraying them but finally had to in order to have a harvest. You make the decision if you want to eat them or not. We felt we would offer you the opportunity for peaches grown as responsibly as can be. We don’t know of any peaches available that have not been sprayed.

Comming up we will have some heirloom tomatoes available,green beans, peppers and eggplant. As we shift into all summer produce the greens fade away until the fall and winter. Have a great 4th and we are thankful to all our farmers for the hard work and wonderful products that they grow, we thank all our eaters or foodies that appreciate and suppoprt the sustainable farming community. Thanks to all!!
