Hello from the gardens. Feels like we are settling in for a lovely September. The gardens are being planted with cool season greens again like arugula, spinach, salad mix, rappini and radish. Seems to be the season of the peppers so we're busy trying to keep up with the harvesting and care.
We have the first of the amazing organic apples, pears and grapes available this Saturday. Starting with Mac's and Bartlett pears there will be a number of varieties to come.
Bushel or half bushel also available by preorder, please email me at mogfarm@gmail.com
