Crop Report: Now Harvesting Peifer Peaches
Thanks for checking in! We hope you enjoyed the weather this week as much as we did. The cool mornings were perfect for peach picking. We have been harvesting several varieties of peaches from our orchard. There's nothing like a fresh picked peach! Full list of produce to find in our Farm Market to follow.
We are still offering U-Pick blackberries. We will have U-Pick Black Raspberries and Red Raspberries later in the season! Our berry patch is open during our Farm Market hours.
Early apple varieties will start to harvest in a couple weeks. Look for varieties like Ginger Gold and Zestar Soon! Updates on apple varieties as they harvest can be found weekly on the Crop Report.
Locally grown eggplant has been beautiful this season! Several of you have asked for some ways to cook eggplant. Love & Lemons has12 easy eggplant recipes that look delicious. Link to recipes below pictures.
Some evenings after a hot day on the farm a charcuterie board is the perfect summer dinner! These recipes are also great for a weekend appetizer if you are entertaining. Locally grown cantaloupe wrapped in prosciutto is one of our favorite summer combos and makes a great addition to charcuterie boards.
We always look forward to a sweet treat for breakfast on Sunday mornings. Michigan blueberries are in! They are so tasty. Recipe for these Blueberry Swirl Coffee Cake Muffins below pictures.
Have a wonderful weekend!
