This is our final week, Thursday will be our last day. Our hours this week will be from 12 pm to 6 pm starting on Monday thru Thursday. I still have a wide variety of tomato plants, flowers, and vegetables. Our peppers are gone. Highlights: I have Boston Pickling cukes, Marketmore 76 and Sweet Burpless. Flowers: Zinnias - Jazzy, Hidden Dragon, Swirls plus, amaranthus - both Green Tails and Love-lies-bleeding. Very pretty and definitely a showstopper. I also have dahlia starts. No, you don't have to dig them, you can treat them as annuals. They are well worth the effort.
This will be our final week. Our new hours as of Monday, May 28th are as follows: Monday thru Thursday from 12 to 6 pm. Thursday, May 31 will be our last day. Sorry our season is over but boy, am I tired!
This year, we have 159 varieties of tomatoes and 50 varieties of peppers.
We so look forward to seeing all of our regular (and new) customers (hopefully you will bring new friends for me to make!)

Due to customer request, we are now offering our tomato cages for sale. They are tall and sturdy and work really well for our plants which usually get very large. Try picking up a tomato plant that has toppled over in a metal tomato cage! $25 for a 5 foot cage. Can be folded like a ladder for storage. See the picture below. First picture is early in the season. As you can see, our tomatoes quickly fill them up.
