We are back from Campground and will be open in the morning - Aug. 1 - starting at 7 a.m. Our home telephone was knocked out by lightning while we were gone. If you tried to call and got weird noises, that was it, but it is fixed now.
Tomorrow: tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, green beans, okra, and onions. Still waiting on those crazy cantaloupes (any day now). On the horizon: lima beans, peas, and cantaloupe.
Starting lettuces, broccoli, and cauliflower today.

Don't forget that we will be open from 7 AM until 1 PM tomorrow, Thursday, July 18. We will have tomatoes (including heirloom), sweet onions, garlic, yellow squash, zuchinni, cucumbers, and (about 6 pounds of ) tender green beans. As always, all of our vegetables are grown organically, though we are not certififed organic..

Tomato Lovers Only!! I have just picked the prettiest tray of heirlooms I have ever picked at one time! If you love Cherokee Purples and Mortgage Lifters as much as Barb and I do, you don't want to miss this opportunity. They will not keep until Thurs. and I want you to have them at their best. I will offer them here at garden starting at 7:00 tomorrow (Tuesday, July 16) morning.

Don't forget

Don't forget that we are open today (July 3) and tomorrow from 7 AM until 1 PM with tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, squash, onions and garlic.  Ryan is also here with great sweet corn - perfect for your holiday!

For the week of July 1-6

For the holiday week, we have a change of schedule for you...  Since our regular market day is Thursday, which is the July 4th holiday, we will be open at the Garden House for you Wednesday (July 3) from 7 AM - 1 PM.  We will also be here Thursday (same times) if you would rather come then; however, you might want to call (465-4225) to make sure what is available after Wednesday.

What should be here this week?  Tomatoes, onions, garlic, cabbage (green and purple), squash, zucchini, cucumbers, and green beans (the flat Italian variety).  In addition, our neighbors (the Pattats) will have WONDERFUL Silver King sweet corn available here....  We had some for supper tonight, and it was really great. 

Hope to see you Wednesday and/or Thursday!

Coming Soon!

We had a great morning at Yum Yum Gardens yesterday, as people came to buy broccoli, onions, garlic, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, and zucchini. 

J. dug all of the garlic, and K. got almost ALL of the onions cleaned and ready to sell, while baby MK greeted and entertained everyone. 

Don't forget to visit on Thursdays from about 7 AM - 1 PM. The garden is really producing this year ~ Don't miss out!

Thought you might like to see J's predictions about what is coming up...  :-D

 

 

Just a reminder that we will be selling from the Garden House tomorrow (Thursday, June 20). Come anytime for fresh cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, onions, garlic, yellow squash, and zucchini.  We even have a limited supply of just picked cucumbers and TOMATOES!

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow ~

Changes for 2013

Greetings, everyone..  We are a little late getting started with the blog this year, but things are rolling in the garden and we are open for business!

Sputt has some excellent garden help this year, since the grandsons are old enough to do some good work.  We also have built a Garden House which has room for Sputt to plant the seeds to transplant into the garden, as well as a canning kitchen and cold room. 

That means that we will be selling from the garden on Thursdays this year instead of traveling to Farmers' Markets.  If you are interested in purchasing any of the vegetables available this summer, just call (465-4225) or email (sputtg@gmail.com) to reserve your order. 

**  Available this week  **

 

Cabbage (both green and purple)

Yellow squash

Zucchini

Onions - incredibly sweet this year

Garlic

and

**** TOMATOES ****

The tomatoes have already started coming in, and they are GREAT!  They are not too big or too pretty yet, but nothing beats the taste of a homegrown tomato. 

As always, all veggies at Yum Yum Gardens are homegrown without pesticides.

Looking forward to seeing you at the garden!
