Beginning September 1, we will be changing our Sunday hours to 11 AM to 5PM. It has been challenging to get the farm stand set up after church in time for early customers. Hours for Tuesday through Saturday will remain the same, 10 to 6.
ANNOUNCEMENT
Since we will be on vacation in September there is no one to tend the farm stand on September 14th and 23rd. The farm stand will be CLOSED, Sunday, September 14 and Sunday, September 23. Please avoid these days.
Although not plentiful, peaches have had quite a long run this year. We are currently harvesting a small crop of Rio Oso Gem and O'Henry. On the horizon are Late Alamar, Fairtime and Summerset. And "That's all folks " till the 2019 season. Sunnyslope Farm will continue to bring us peaches as they have available.
We seem to be getting more and more small tomatoes. The big ones are few and far between. They are small in size but are still big on flavor. The Asian cucumbers are not as long or straight as in the middle of summer but they are still very enjoyable.
We have had a good run of grapes this year. But that too
is coming to a end. Probably just another week or two before the vines are empty.

Yellow Freestone Peaches: Fay Elberta, Rio Oso Gem, O'Henry
