6 | Prices and availability are subject to change due to unforseen variables in the season ahead. Obviously we hope we have all these things in great abundance, and you never know how a season will shake out! Please take note of the season when considering what you'd like to order. Special orders/requests are most welcome, just give us a call or send an email. If you don't see something that you'd like to have grown locally please let us know! Also, while we are not certified organic, our growing methods surpass current organic standards, and we also employ biodynamic methods. If you have any questions, or would like to see our growing methods in practice, just let us know! All produce has been well washed before we send it to market, and is ready to eat. That being said, we're an organic farm, and occasionally you'll find a few stowaways in the cabbages, as it were. | |||||

11 | Spicy Salad Mix | A blend of arugula, mizuna, baby lettuce, mustards and more--varies slightly with the seasons. Spicy, sweet, pleasantly bitter, toothsome, and all around an excellent and healthful salad mix. Especially nice with a sweet-ish or warm dressing (think grapefruit and candied walnuts). | $10.00/lb | $7.00/lb | n/a | Early Spring-Frost |
12 | Toothy Salad Mix | A unique mix of radicchio, escarole, frisse, dandelion greens and other chicories. | $10.00/lb | $7.00/lb | n/a | Early Spring-Frost |

14 | Mizuna and Arugula | Mizuna is a Japanese mustard that is related to arugula, though much more mild and sweet. Together mizuna and arugula create a salad that halves the punch of arugula by itself and adds a juiciness and sweetness arugula doesn't carry alone. The combination is fantastic, and great for those who think they don't like arugula. | $10.00/lb | $7.00/lb | n/a | Early Spring-Frost |

20 | Bunching Greens | |||||
21 | Kale | We grow 4 different kale species each season. Each is unique in flavor, texture, and color, though all have that familiar kaliness. Our bunches are 3-4 times the size of a bunch you'd get at a co-op in January. Varieties: Red Bor, Winter Bor, Rainbow Lacinato, and Lacinato or Dino kale. | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 24 bunch minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
22 | Chard | We grow the Bright Lights variety which includes the most incredible colors and striping we've ever seen. Our bunches are large, and the leaves are huge. Remember chard stems are just as edible and delicious as the greens, and they add a tremendous amount of color (and nutrition) to your dishes. | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 24 bunch minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
23 | Italian Dandelion Greens | Red Italian Dandelion greens are deliciously bitter and juicy, and an excellent addition to salads, stirfrys, or soups. | $3/bunch | $2/bunch | n/a | Early summer-hard freeze |

28 | ||||||
29 | Heads, Crowns, and Stems | |||||
30 | Head Lettuce | We grow a huge variety of head lettuces--butters, batavian crispheads, and loose leaf--in lots of different colors and sizes, with various frills and speckles. So beautiful! Try something new or try our big, beautiful green heads! | $3/head | $2.50/head | $2/head | Early spring-hard freeze |
31 | Broccoli | We grow a lot of broccoli, many different varieties, all sweet and juicy. The big crowns are the first to come, and are what most folks recognize, but we choose varieties that generate abundant side shoots after the crown is harvested. Side shoots are just as flavorful and require less processing in the kitchen, so are much more user friendly. | $4/lb for crowns or shoots | $3/lb for crowns or shoots. | $2.50/lb 20 lb minimum (side shoots are excellent for freezing!) | Early summer-hard freeze |
32 | Sprouting Broccoli or Broccolini | Some broccoli varieties never form a large, central crown, but produce abundant, long-stemmed florets with slightly larger beads. The stems of this kind of broccoli are incredibly tender, sweet, and succulent. Once folks try them it's hard to go back to the big crowns! They're excellent treated similarly to asparagus in cooking. Sold in bunches, by the pound. | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 20 lb minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
33 | Brussel's Sprouts | We grow lovely green Brussel's and also some truely beautiful red sprouts. The reds are a little smaller than the greens but still so good braised with butter and garlic! | $7/lb | $6.00/lb | n/a | Mid to late fall. |
34 | Cauliflower | The varieties of cauliflower that we grow are all heirlooms of fantastic flavors and colors--white, purple, orange, and green. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 15 lb minimum | Mid summer-hard freeze |
35 | Cabbage | We start the season with mini personal cabbages (green, red and pointed ones) and napas, then grow large storage and savoyed (that means wrinkly) cabbages in the fall! Different cabbages are best suited to different things. Many folks come up to our market stand and try to squeeze the living hell out of every one trying to find the hardest one, which is great, if you're looking for kraut-worthy bowling balls, but you'll miss the tender-hearted savoys and napas which make such amazing slaws, salads, wrapper leaves, and stir-frys. Try something new! | $2/lb | $1.50/lb | $1/lb 25/lb minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
36 | Romanesco | Technically a cauliflower, romanesco's chartreuse fractalizations have a definite brassica flavor, somewhere between broccoli and cauliflower. They keep their color when cooked, and add so much intrigue to snack trays and sautees alike. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 15 lb minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
37 | Tatsoi | A delicious relative of pac choy, tatsoi has small, spoon shaped leaves that have a fantastic flavor and incredibly pleasing texture. Great in salad or cooking green mixes as loose leaves, but also great used like choy as the stems are thick and juicy, too! | $4/lb | $3/lb | n/a | Early summer-hard freeze |
38 | Celery | We grow green and red celeries--the green forming a crown like what most folks are familiar with, while the red is a cutting-celery type, from which we make bunches of individual leaves. Both are incredible. Homegrown celery is so much more flavorful than store-bought. Many customers often say our celery is the best they've ever had, one particularly enthusiastic customer said our celery was "transcendent!" | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 20 lb minimum | Late summer-frost |
39 | Radicchio and other chicories | Delicious, dense heads in beautiful reds and stripes, or football-shaped blanched green with lemon yellow hearts. Chicories are nutty, pleasantly bitter, with a deep, underlying sweetness that isn't cloying, and is deeply satisfying. They're an excellent addition to salads, are delightful sauteed, and incredible roasted with stonefruit and goat's cheese as a desert. We like to use the leaves as wrappers for little rolls full of delicious things. The tiny, blanched heart is always the sweetest, nuttiest, silkiest textured part, and around here, offering one to someone is considered courting behavior. They're that good. | $4/head | $3/head | $2.50/head 12 head minimum | Early Spring, Late summer-hard freeze |
40 | Fennel | Juicy, sweet bulbs, and tasty, feathery tops! Excellent shaved with parmesan atop salads, even better roasted with balsamic glaze. Or tossed with steamed beets. So many uses! Caramelized fennel on pizza? Yes, I think so. | $3/head | $2.50/head | $2/head 12 head minimum | Mid-summer-frost |
41 | Kohlrabi | Swollen brassica stems with a sweet, succulent flavor and a satisfying tender-crisp texture. Great eaten right out of the garden, or on a snack tray, or included in soups or sautees. An old-fashioned favorite! We grow green and purple varieties. | $3/lb | $2/lb | $1.75/lb 15 lb minimum | Early summer-Late fall |

46 | Snap Beans (aka Green Beans, except they're not all green!) | We love to grow lots of different snap beans. While it is possible for us to pick only one color for special orders (just ask), we typically sell beans in a colorful mix including green, purple, yellow, and striped. The beans in our mix all cook similarly and create a delicacy for the eye as well as the mouth. Most purple beans will fade to green if fully cooked, though a quick sautee will heat them through, make them tender, and leave a good bit of color. | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 20lb minimum | Mid summer-frost |
47 | Filet Beans (aka) Haricot Verts | These beans are much slimmer and finer than snap beans. Considered a delicacy in French cookery, filet beans are tasty, fancy, and absolutely gorgeous in our three color blend: green, yellow, and purple. | $5/lb | $4/lb | $3/lb 10/lb minimum | Mid summer-frost |
48 | Noodle Beans | Noodle beans are about 18" long, crisp, and with an incredibly unique flavor--fresh, juicy, almost fruity, with a hint of beaniness, some folks even taste asparagus-like qualities. They're great fresh, steamed or chopped into lengths for soup or saute. We grow green and purple varieties, that latter keeps it's color when cooked, a rareity among purple beans! | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 10lb minimum | Late summer-frost |
49 | Okra | Red and green pods are a key ingredient in West African, Ethiopian, and South Asian cooking, and of course the Southern U.S. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | n/a | Mid summer-frost |

57 | Peppers (paprika) | We love to grow a few old fashioned Hungarian paprika varieties that are truly deep of flavor, excellent dried, and superb in sautees. I guarantee most folks haven't had peppers this complex and delicious before. | $5/lb | $4/lb | $3.50/lb 10lb minimum | Summer-frost |

59 | Husk Cherries | They look like little tiny tomatillos but the flavor is spectacularly tropical for a midwest grown fruit! They make excellent jams and jellies, that is, if you can keep yourself from eating them all! | $6/lb | $5/lb | n/a | Mid summer-frost |
60 | Eggplant | We grow the black/purple ones folks are used to, along with the elongated Asian varieties that make prep so easy (just coin them to add to sauce, or chop into rough chunks for kebabs) as well as a white variety. | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 15lb minimum | Mid summer-frost |

13 | Carrots (storage) | Storage carrots are sold loose, without tops. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 20lb minimum | Mid summer-frost |
14 | Celery | We grow green and red celeries--the green forming a crown like what most folks are familiar with, while the red is a cutting-celery type, from which we make bunches of individual leaves. Both are incredible. Homegrown celery is so much more flavorful than store-bought. Many customers often say our celery is the best they've ever had, one particularly enthusiastic customer said our celery was "transcendent!" | $4/lb | $3/lb | $2.50/lb 20 lb minimum | Late summer-frost |
15 | Kale | We grow 4 different kale species each season. Each is unique in flavor, texture, and color, though all have that familiar kaliness. Our bunches are 3-4 times the size of a bunch you'd get at a co-op in January. Varieties: Red Bor, Winter Bor, Rainbow Lacinato, and Lacinato or Dino kale. | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 24 bunch minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
16 | Leeks | Long, blanched, straight stalks with a fine grain and delightfully mild, sweet flavor. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 20 lb minimum | Late summer-frost |
17 | Onions (storage) | Large red, pink, and yellow globes with papery skins, cured for storage. | $2/lb | $1.50/lb | $1/lb 15 lb minimum | Fall |
18 | Potatoes (fingerling) | Fingerlings in blue/purple and yellow. Delicious, waxy texture is excellent for root roasts, and they keep their shape and texture in soups. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 20lb minimum | Late summer-fall |
19 | Potatoes | We grow eye-catching Adirondack Red and Blues, big old Kennebecs, and smooth Yukon Golds. | $2.50/lb | $2/lb | $1.75/lb 20lb minimum | Late summer-fall |

24 | Basil | Purple, Genovese, Tulsi, and a few other fantastic varieties! Basil=summer. | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch | $1.75/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Midsummer-frost |
25 | Beets (bunched) | We tend to sell mixed bunches, though single varieties are easily bunched upon request. Red, golden, and chioggia are our typical varieties. For bunching we tend to harvest at baby to medium sized roots, and include the delicious greens! | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Spring-frost |
26 | Broccoli | We grow a lot of broccoli, many different varieties, all sweet and juicy. The big crowns are the first to come, and are what most folks recognize, but we choose varieties that generate abundant side shoots after the crown is harvested. Side shoots are just as flavorful and require less processing in the kitchen, so are much more user friendly. | $4/lb for crowns or shoots | $3/lb for crowns or shoots. | $2.50/lb 20 lb minimum (side shoots are excellent for freezing!) | Early summer-hard freeze |
27 | Cabbage | We start the season with mini personal cabbages (green, red and pointed ones) and napas, then grow large storage and savoyed (that means wrinkly) cabbages in the fall! Different cabbages are best suited to different things. Many folks come up to our market stand and try to squeeze the living hell out of every one trying to find the hardest one, which is great, if you're looking for kraut-worthy bowling balls, but you'll miss the tender-hearted savoys and napas which make such amazing slaws, salads, wrapper leaves, and stir-frys. Try something new! | $2/lb | $1.50/lb | $1/lb 25/lb minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
28 | Carrots (bunched) | We grow orange, purple, and red carrots. All are sweet and crisp. Bunches are sold with the pretty tops on. | $4/bunch | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Mid summer-frost |
29 | Cauliflower | The varieties of cauliflower that we grow are all heirlooms of fantastic flavors and colors--white, purple, orange, and green. | $3/lb | $2.50/lb | $2/lb 15 lb minimum | Mid summer-hard freeze |
30 | Chard | We grow the Bright Lights variety which includes the most incredible colors and striping we've ever seen. Our bunches are large, and the leaves are huge. Remember chard stems are just as edible and delicious as the greens, and they add a tremendous amount of color (and nutrition) to your dishes. | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 24 bunch minimum | Early summer-hard freeze |
31 | Cilantro | Fresh, young cilantro for all those summer salsas, tacos and burritos! | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch | $1.75/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Early spring-frost |
32 | Dill | So tasty for dips and pickles! | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch | $1.75/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Midsummer-frost |
33 | Fennel | Juicy, sweet bulbs, and tasty, feathery tops! Excellent shaved with parmesan atop salads, even better roasted with balsamic glaze. Or tossed with steamed beets. So many uses! Caramelized fennel on pizza? Yes, I think so. | $3/head | $2.50/head | $2/head 12 head minimum | Mid-summer-frost |
34 | Kohlrabi | Swollen brassica stems with a sweet, succulent flavor and a satisfying tender-crisp texture. Great eaten right out of the garden, or on a snack tray, or included in soups or sautees. An old-fashioned favorite! We grow green and purple varieties. | $3/lb | $2/lb | $1.75/lb 15 lb minimum | Early summer-fall |
35 | Head Lettuce | We grow a huge variety of head lettuces--butters, batavian crispheads, and loose leaf--in lots of different colors and sizes, with various frills and speckles. So beautiful! Try something new or try our big, beautiful green heads! | $3/head | $2.50/head | $2/head | Early spring-hard freeze |
36 | Onions (bunching) | Fresh onions, uncured, with greens--not all onions make great storage bulbs. These are tender, sweet, and ephemeral heirlooms, mostly from Italy. | $4/bunch | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Midsummer-fall |
37 | Onions (pearl) | Little ping-pong ball sized red and white bunching onions. Great for adding whole to cream sauces and roasts, or pickling. The greens act as lovely scallions. | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Spring-frost |
38 | Parsley | Flat and curled, most delightful with butter on new potatoes! | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch | $1.75/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Midsummer-hard freeze |
39 | Radicchio | Delicious, dense heads in beautiful reds and stripes. Chicories are nutty, pleasantly bitter, with a deep, underlying sweetness that isn't cloying, and is deeply satisfying. They're an excellent addition to salads, are delightful sauteed, and incredible roasted with stonefruit and goat's cheese as a desert. We like to use the leaves as wrappers for little rolls full of delicious things. The tiny, blanched heart is always the sweetest, nuttiest, silkiest textured part, and around here, offering one to someone is considered courting behavior. They're that good. | $4/head | $3/head | $2.50/head 12 head minimum | Early Spring, Late summer-hard freeze |
40 | Radish (spring/summer) | Colorful, generous bunches of Easter Eggs, or French Breakfast radishes. We grow red, purple, pink and white radishes and can provide mixed bunches or single colors. Not pithy, and just the right amount of spice. So refreshing! | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Spring-summer |
41 | Radish (winter) | Watermelon radishes and daikon radishes are much bigger than spring radishes and so beautiful. We grow white and purple daikons which are a traditional ingredient in Kimchi, and are quite refreshing. Watermelon radishes tend to have green skins and bright pink hearts, and are gorgeous in salads or as garnishes. | $4/bunch | $3.25/bunch | $3/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Fall |
42 | Summer Squash and Zucchini | Green, yellow, and round zucchinis, buttery yellow crooknecks, and subtle, sweet, fine textured patty pans in a lovely array of yellows, greens, and stripes. All our summer squashes are picked small and tender, just after the blossom falls off--no seed development, tender, excellent eating quality. | $2/lb | $2/lb | $1.25/lb 10lb minimum | Mid summer-frost |
43 | Turnips (salad) | Hakurei turnips are tender, juicy, and so sweet. They taste kind of like a cross between snap peas and kohlrabi with the giving texture of a slightly firm pear. They're amazing in salads or on snack trays, and lots of folks say they're good grilled or sauteed, too, but around here they never last long enough to get to a pan before they're eaten! | $3/bunch | $2.50/bunch | $2/bunch 12 bunch minimum | Spring-frost |
