News from Cape Abilities, October 2
Pumpkins, Squash, Mums and more...
It has been a busy time at Cape Abilities Farm - the fall harvest is well underway and it's pumpkin time at the farm.
 
We've been harvesting a wide variety of wonderful winter squash from our fields in Marstons Mills - and the pumpkins are plentiful.  As a special thank you to our loyal email customers, please see the coupon at the bottom of this newsletter - and bring it to the farm - along with your favorite children - for free mini-pumpkins (one per child - while supplies last).
 
We also have some spectacular mums on sale - the colors are especially vibrant. All of the mums were grown at Cape Abilities Farm.
 
This is the last week for the famous sweet corn on the cob, from our friends at Cervelli Farm in Rochester. Our special offer is buy 6 ears, get 6 free. Corn is $3.50 per half dozen - so you can get a dozen ears of corn for $3.50. This is a great time to freeze corn. If you've never done it, it's easy - just click here for simple instructions.
 
Of course, our award-winning tomatoes and lettuce are still-fresh picked every day at our greenhouses in Dennis. Just stop by our farmstand - at 458 Main Street in Dennis - we're open every day (except Monday) from 10 AM - 5PM.
