News & Tips
In the summer of 2009 we built a farmstand on our Limeridge Road growing area near Pioneer Trail. This is where our red raspberries are for pick your own. Red raspberries generally starting by August and produce through September.
Beautiful Limelight Hydrangeas are here also. You can order some beginning in late July when their flowers are white. The flowers then turn their signature green by August and as the season cools they pick up those red shades. They can be cut at that phase as dried flowers.
Look for on farm sales coming soon… cut flowers, plants, and red raspberries blackberries and more!
