Our first crop failure due to wether: SUMMER SQUASH (Produce of our Garden) Summer squash include Zuchinni. They are soft skinned and come in all sorts of shapes, colors & sizes. You can eat everything except the stem end. Unfortunatly a virus due to excessive wetness has aflicted the summer sqhaush and has spread into our winter sqash. We still have small amounts, and have started some new plants, but are now bringing in Green & Yellow from Southern Ontario at $ 3.00 / lb.
-PATI-PAN & SCALOP (flower shaped): $ 3.50 / lb (low production)
WINTER SQASH has started. It has a thicker skin, and dry, sweet flesh. It stores for longer periods of time, hence “winter.” Thanks to the same virus that ravaged our summer squash, the yeild will be small. There will still be a crop, but a smaller one than usual. All Winter squash is $ 1.39 / lb.

BULK PRICES: By advance reservation no additional fee attached.   Reservations need to be received by 4 pm for next day pick up.
BULK TOMATOES: An 11 Qt Basket is $ 25.00. Three baskets = a bushel. 
Commonly used bulk tomatoes are Rugby, Roma, San Marzano &  Beefsteaks or a mixture. 
-Chocolate Trifels, Chocolate Roma’s (derived from the San Marzano) or Purple Hearts (larger oxheart) are a great addition to any basket. I call them my “port” of tomatoes. They have a deep, rich flavour & color that will fortify any of your sauces or canning requirements.
We now have baskets available in th0e following varities. 
-ROMA
RED ITALIAN (Mix of Roma & San Marzano)
-FORTIFIED ITALIANS
(Red Italians with the addition of trifells or Chocolate roma’s to boost the flavour)
-CHOCOLATE TRIFEL (Steve’s favourite) Rich in color & flavor. Blanch & toss into a pan. Voila! Instant sauce. Tammy likes to add them to the other tomato varieties to enhance the flavour experience
RUGBY (A low acid, pink oxheart)
FORTIFIED RUGBY (With some chocolate to enhance the flavour)
MARZANO are available, but better to reserve. They vanish quickly
-SUNRISE SAUCE: A beautiful golden roma, lower in acid.
-MIXED MARZANO’s a mixture of chocolate & red marzano’s
-TOMATILLO’S: 11 Qt Basket $ 35.00
-GRAND MARZANO
a larger, tasy(ier), canning tomato. I would venture to say “beefsteak sized. ” Have now started. They take longer to ripen, but are well worth the wait. Tammy’s second favourite 🙂
