We close tonight at 8!

So grateful for all the fresh produce on the market, particularly with the unfavourable weather this season. Excessive rains, invincible pests, and long dry spells are not discouraging in the same way when your livelihood and paycheck don’t depend upon such variables beyond your control.

We met a fellow farmer this week, and when he said he hadn’t seen a year so poor for growing and so hard on farmers since he was young and starting out in the 50s, we were shocked. We knew how badly we and others were struggling, as you can only compensate for the weather to a point, but to hear someone with decades more experience than us validate our struggles… Just par for the course, really. That’s just Farming! You have to be optimistic and hopeful!

And aren’t we grateful for everyone committed to that noble, difficult, and delicious profession?

So Thank You to all our farmers, and a heartfelt Thank You also to our customers who help us continue on and make it all worthwhile :-).
