Whew! What A Crazy Summer! Now Open 7 Days until Picked Out!

Believe it or not, looks like things are starting to wind down around here. This has been our earliest, and shortest, season yet. There is still loads of great fruit in the fields, but we want to get as much of it picked before the heat sets in later this week. So we'll be open 7 days a week, from 9a-6p until we are picked out. I will post here when we decide the picking is no longer fun enough to stay open. There are still a few Reka (for the committed picker), very good, very very sweet Hardy Blues ready for baking into pies or muffins, a bit of Blue Gold (if I don't beat you to it!), Legacy (though not quite as GIGANTIC as before, but still tasty and large), and SO MANY LIBERTYs! They are fast becoming one of my top picks. There are a few wrinkly ones- which I think are even sweeter than the others, but the bulk of them are firm and juicy. I love their unique texture and dusty blue skin. They rival Blue Gold for that complex, sparkly taste and the picking is still very fast and satisfying. 

In case you missed it on Instagram or Facebook, I made blueberry pickles and jam this week. Both turned out fab, but I really love the pickles. Great for smearing onto chèvre on a cracker or topping a turkey sandwich as a really extraordinary condiment.
