The October strawberries are going crazy and we have lots available for sale. If you haven’t yet made strawberry jam, frozen some for winter smoothies, or made strawberry shortcake, now is the time to get them! They are gorgeous!
Heirloom and red tomatoes are still going strong and fall salad greens are coming in.
The Farm Store is now closed for the season but you can still get our pesticide-free berries, melons, vegetables, and other local foods by emailing an order to us or come to our booth at the Troy Farmers’ Market on Saturdays from 9 - 2.
If you would like products on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, email us an order through the “Contact us” tab above.

We are the first farm in the country to cover our entire blueberry and raspberry plantings with a fine mesh netting to exclude a tiny invasive insect that would ruin our crops or require us to spray every 5-7 days. Dale-Ila is the creator of this innovative technique and is teaching growers throughout the country that this technique works while providing pesticide-free berries to you!
If you are a commercial grower that is interested in obtaining netting, please send us an email through the “Contact” tab above.
Thank you for your support this year!
