LOTS OF BROCCOLI SATURDAY & TUESDAY 10/21 & 10/25!

See Grant at our farm stand for some great broccoli!

Alida says "Yummmm"! She's glad her Mommy got Hickory Hill Broccoli!

IN ADDITION TO BROCCOLI, we also have cauliflower, kale and cabbage. And NEW THIS WEEK, yellow field corn and sorghum, tied in bunches for Fall decorations. The corn can also be used to feed squirrels.

See Cauliflower Man!

See Cauliflower Man, aka Grant Bentz, at our Hickory Hill Farm stand at the Harrisonburg Farmers Market, on Tuesday and Saturday mornings! He will keep you supplied with beautiful cauliflower, broccoli, kale and cabbage from now until the end of our season (probably around early November).

BUSHELS OF CAULIFLOWER AT MARKET TUESDAY 9/27!!!

Tomorrow, 9/27/11, we’ll have bushels of cauliflower joining the broccoli, kale and red, green, savoy and Chinese cabbage at our stand at the Harrisonburg Farmers Market. Come by our stand, say “Hi” to Grant and check out these beautiful, healthful fall vegetables! Maybe you can help Grant sell his NINE BUSHELS of cauliflower tomorrow!;-)

We expect to have an abundance of broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and red, green, savoy and Chinese cabbage every Tuesday and Saturday morning at the Market to the beginning of November or thereabouts.

REMINDER: This Thursday, 9/29, is the last Thursday of this Market season and we will be there with our veggies!

Thanks for your business.

BROCCOLI IN ABUNDANCE NOW AVAILABLE!!!

ADD BROCCOLI to the list of products now available from Hickory Hill Farm at the Harrisonburg Farmers Market, starting Saturday, 9/17/11. This is in addition to our other Fall “cole” crops (cabbage family) of kale and red, green, savoy and Chinese cabbage. We will also be finishing up the last of the Concord grapes in the near future. Look for these products at our stand at the Market on Tuesday and Saturday mornings and Thursday evenings and say “Hi” to Grant Bentz, who does such a wonderful job for us on the farm and at Market!

We love the fact that we can grow the cole crops with natural fertilizer and biological insect control, so that they are not only nutritious and tasty but also free of chemicals–for your sake and ours! You can enjoy them without concern about what they have been sprayed with.

The cool weather and abundant moisture of Fall gives the cole crops a more tender texture and milder flavor than when grown in the early and mid summer, and the frost actually makes them sweeter–especially the kale!

Happy, healthy eating to you!
Samuel Johnson for Hickory Hill Farm
