Warm sun and longer days are bringing the local farmer's fields back to life.
Some local produce items are sizing up and getting ready for harvest soon. We're looking forward to the local growing season officially beginning for 2017 and it looks like next week we will have locally foraged ramps and fiddle heads to kick off the season. Local asparagus, peas and greens will come next followed by local strawberries in several weeks.
Organic Produce & Affordability
One of our main missions over the last nine years has been to keep our organic produce prices as low and competitive as we possibly can. We try to do a produce price check with other markets a few times a year to make sure we're still offering a good deal on organics as well as maintaining high standards on produce quality. It is important to us that the members of our community, especially children, have access to a great variety of fresh, organic produce year-round.
As I've learned this past year with having my own baby, making homemade baby food and feeding our children fresh produce as their first foods is easier than we may have been led to believe. Obviously food companies want us to buy their packaged and prepared foods but with a little planning, a food mill or a blender, and a Berkshire Organics produce basket, you will be amazed at the healthy plant foods you can feed your family each day. We thank you for your continued support!
