Greetings! 
We have totally picked up the pace at the farm, and it feels great!!  We will be bringing many new items to market....
Blueberries
Raspberries
Sweet Cherries
Sour Cherries (read below to place an order)
But as new crops are harvested, its time to say farewell to our other favorites.... 
This will be our last weekend with asparagus and strawberries, and our Pink Lady apples were gobbled up a little faster than expected; so you won't find them at market.  But try our GoldRush, Fuji, and York apples!  They are all delicious too!!
Time to Bake a Pie....
Order your Sour Cherries Today!!
We brought our first cherries to market last week, and now is your opportunity to place orders for bulk quantities.  
 
old phoneTo place an order, please call our office by 10am Friday (6/15). Our phone number is 717-334-2722.  We will need the following information:
 
Your Name
Phone Number
At which market you will pick up the cherries
The quantity you would like (a flat holds 6 quart boxes)
 tart cherries
For those of you who would still like to enjoy the summer time delight of cherries, but you don't want to purchase an entire flat, we will be bringing plenty of sour cherries so you can simply pick up a box or two at market.

We're Pickin' Peaches....but just a few....
Vote for your Farmers Market on Facebook!!
We have started harvesting our Rich May yellow peaches and Sugar May white peaches.  They smell and taste so delicious; we can't wait for you to get your hands on them this weekend!  
However, we have a little glitch.  We will only have a few crates of peaches to bring to market.   There probably won't be enough to go around.  And poor Sidney is about to pull her hair out because we're all asking if we can take them to the market that each of us attends.  
So we need your help....You can cast your vote on Facebook!  
Tell your friends.  Spread the word.  
Raspberries are on Special
We have booku Raspberries!!  And trust us, we do not want to bring them home after market.  Clearly....we bring them to market...we want YOU to have them!  
 
So, we are having a "2 for $" special on our Red Raspberries!  
 raspberries
Raspberries are an awesome "super fruit" packed with anti-oxidants, and are a great source of Vitamin C and dietary fiber.  And they are delicious and fun to eat!  
  • Pop them in your mouth and enjoy!
  • Raspberry Muffins
  • Mix them into your yogurt as a mid afternoon snack
  • Mix Raspberries with a little honey, and heat to make a chunky fruit syrup and spoon over your Sunday morning waffles or pancakes
  • Fruit Smoothies:  Blueberry & Raspberry!
  • Or check out our website for delicious recipes; just enter "Raspberry" in the recipe search bar.
