Sugar Snap Peas
We do 4 successive plantings of sugar snap peas each season for a total of around 3 acres. That is around 315,000 plants! Our season runs from June 20th through the end of July. Peas prefer the cooler weather and they are quite labor intensive to harvest. In 2023, we harvested just shy of 10,000 pounds of sugar snap peas.
​
Green Beans
In 2023, we decided to succession plant green beans throughout the entire growing season. This meant a nice and steady supply for our customers all season. We start to harvest in the last week of June and go through the first week of harvest. Our green beans are all hand picked. We grow around 11 acres of green beans each season, yielding around 42,000 pounds

Pickled cucumbers are a new endeavor for us in 2024! We are primarily growing them for our you- pick events. You can get the perfect sized pickles for for your pickling needs! We have around 4,300 plants this season.

We planted cauliflower for the first time in 2023. It was a great success at our you- pick vegetable events, with any extra sent to Foley school for the Farm to School program we participate in. This season we will have traditional white as well as purple and cheddar varieties!
Broccoli
We first started growing broccoli in 2021 and have had tremendous success. We plant a spring and fall crop of, we harvest twice throughout the season. Broccoli generally does not like the heat so spring and fall are best growing conditions. We will have around 60,000 plants this season which should yield us around 45,000 pounds!
