That’s right, we are having yet another Tomato U-Pick! Despite all the folks who came out last weekend, we still have quite the arsenal of sweet ‘maters on the vine just ripe for the pickin’; thus, we want to invite the community out one last time! For all of you who missed our last event, here’s your chance! We had such a fun time slingin’ tomatoes in the summertime sun with friends last Saturday, we are over the moon to announce another opportunity to get out in the fields and get our hands dirty with our farm family! Ain’t nothing like harvesting your own food, especially these sweet summertime treats. Pick it or miss it! It’ll soon be too hot for our tomatoes to make it through the impending and relentless heat. The quality of this crop right now cannot be beat. If you sign up before the event, you can purchase a 10 lb box for a discounted $20, or on the day of, it will be $30 for a 10 lb box. So sign up now to take advantage of that yummy discount. Pile the literal fruits of your labor as high as you can for all that canning, salsa-making, and tomato pie!
