July Updates:
What’s Happening
on the Farm
Our Spring season has wrapped up and now move forward into an exciting time in the farm, Summer time! The volume of vegetables that will be popping up throughout the farm will be bountiful and we are excited to share the reward with our Summer Abundance Harvest Box members and those stopping by the stand or markets.
Field Romas tomatoes, hot and bell peppers, zucchini, cabbage, herbs, greens, onions, and garlic are just a few of the highlights of what is to come throughout the summer season.
We will also have beautiful cut flowers to purchase or swap out at your next harvest box pick up.
We just love summer! 🙂

Since our last newsletter we’ve launched two new ciders! And although we love them all, these two have been a massive hit for the summer time. If you haven't met them yet, allow us to introduce you:
Hop Garden
A hoped cider using Simcoe, Mosiac and Citra this cider was finished with organically grown ginger to give a smooth, refreshing, crushable taste. Hop Garden finished with the slightest touch of sweetness and 100% goodness.
Last Call Volume Two
Since you couldn't get enough of Volume One, we went ahead and made a Volume Two! This one is a bit different though... Volume Two is a bourbon barrel aged crabapple cider aged on cherries. This cider is still, so no carbonation, and is perfect for those who like things a bit sour or love getting creative with mixing cocktails. Find a recipe used for Canada Day below.
