approximate season: order now

They keep well. They may be available year round.



As the season nears its end, we have a good number of tomatoes, so we are offering them this Saturday at the Princeton Farmers’ Market at only $3 /quart, which is less than $1.50 / pound. We also have canning tomatoes (with blemishes) for $0.80 / pound or $14 for a half bushel. Saturday, we also plan to bring to Princeton red raspberries, black walnuts, chestnuts, garlic, onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, dill, cilantro, wheat, acorn and butternut squash, pie pumpkins, ground cherries, tomatillos, radishes, lettuce, carrots, and sunchokes. And of course, we will have our popular Plow Creek Bakery goodies.


It looks like a good crop of black walnuts this year. I just started gathering them today. They are best seasoned several weeks, but several hours of slow roasting is a fine substitute. I probably start bringing them to Princeton market next week. If you want larger quantities, or would like them still in the hull (cheaper!) please contact us.
