Thanksgiving? It seems like yesterday we were swimming off Sandy Neck, watching the sunset over Rock Harbor and grilling on the backyard deck. And Christmas and New Year's are just around the corner.
It's been very busy at the farm. Construction on our new greenhouse is continuing - to bring you more award-winning tomatoes next summer.
The retail shop has been moved - just follow the signs. We still have a great selection of squash and other produce for your Thanksgiving table. Christmas trees, wreaths and holiday greens will be available this weekend.
The farmstand - at 458 Main Street in Dennis - is open every day (except Monday) from 10 AM - 4PM. We will be closed on Thursday and Friday this week, so our staff can enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with their families.
 If you missed "Cooking with Cape Abilities" on Channel 17, you can watch Katie Stubstad and Chef/Owner Weldon Fizell from The Regatta of Cotuit prepare Buttercup Squash Bisque. It's a tasty recipe for Thanksgiving, and can be used with almost any squash. Chef Fizell has some great time-saving tips for preparing squash for Thanksgiving.

| Happy Thanksgiving from our friends at Plimoth Plantation
 Turkey, potatoes, cranberries? Our modern day "traditional" Thanksgiving dinner bears little resemblance to the food at the first Thanksgiving in 1621.
You can be the Thanksgiving expert at your dinner table on Thursday after reading this brief, fascinating article, click here.
Cape Cod was the first stop for the Pilgrims in November, 1620. They anchored in Provincetown Harbor and explored the area before heading across Cape Cod bay.The strong connection between Cape Cod and Plimoth continues today. Paula Peters (left) and Tom Turner from Plimoth Plantation are pictured with the Cape Abilities Welcome to Cape Cod Beach Bucket. Plimoth Plantation is a sponsor of our beach bucket business.
