Our cherry tomato harvest is in full effect. It is the time of year where we harvest all the plants and then two days later it looks like they have never been harvested as they are just full of ripe fruit.

Even though we are in harvest mode, we are still doing a bit of planting. As we are getting the last of our last succession of tomato transplants out into the field. We know it seems late, which it is but this is how we are able to continue to get a steady harvest of tomatoes right up until the frost which for us typically arrives early November.

We are also still starting seeds in the greenhouse so that we will have seedlings for you to transplant into your fall gardens. Right now our seedling selection includes sunflowers, marigolds, onions, leeks, celery, zinnias, purslane, basil, and more. Head over to our online shop to see our current selection of seedlings for sale.
This week at the Saturday Easton farmers’ market we will have cherry tomatoes by the pint, garlic by the quarter pound, lots of seedlings, plus our prepared food. The special will be our Denver Taco: chopped ham, diced sweet peppers and onions with fluffy scrambled eggs served on a warm corn tortilla and garnished with pico de gallo. It is our version of the classic Denver omelet and it is one of our most popular specials.

Each week we make our fish ceviche which is made of local white fish marinated in lime juice with ripe tomatoes, chopped onions, fresh cilantro, kosher salt, and black pepper. From week to week the fish varies but it is always a white fish as we think they make for the best ceviche.
We are often asked how we like to eat our ceviche. Our go-to is just to dip tortilla chips in it, eating it as a snack or appetizer. But you can also serve our ceviche with crackers, crispy grilled bread, in lettuce cups, or alone as a refreshing salad. If you are looking for a spicy ceviche get a 2 oz container of our habanero hot sauce to mix into it.
If you have never had our ceviche you can give it a try at the farmers’ market by getting our Ceviche Tostada. This is delicious and refreshing as it is our chilled ceviche on a bed of crunchy lettuce served on a crispy corn tortilla. We hope to see you soon at the market.
