Join us for our monthly Second Sunday Sampler, where you’ll get to taste seasonal recipes, learn how we use some of our favorite farm products, and leave with recipes you can easily recreate at home. This month we’re highlighting berries, with complimentary samples, recipe cards, and a few of our favorite ways to enjoy them. This month’s samples: Local A2 ice cream topped with a homemade berry compote, along with the recipe to make it yourself. A refreshing elderberry mocktail and recipe card filled with creative ways to use elderberry juice beyond just taking a spoonful. Complimentary CBD salve samples, plus information about how we use it and what so many of our customers love it for. This month’s special: Buy One, Get One 50% off on all frozen berries. Freezing berries at peak season is one of the easiest ways to enjoy local fruit long after summer ends. They’re perfect for smoothies, compotes, desserts, baking, breakfasts, and so much more. Lunch is available too! If you’re staying for lunch, we’ll have our fresh seasonal salad bowls stocked in the farm store refrigerator while supplies last. Whether you’re curious about elderberry, looking for new ways to use frozen berries, interested in our CBD products, or simply want to spend a Sunday afternoon sampling living-soil-grown ingredients transformed into nourishing, house-made recipes, we’d love to welcome you.
