End of Season Sale at the Farm Stand

We hope everyone is managing to stay safe, healthy and sane during these fires. We are at the tail end of our open-farm season and have an abundance of produce that needs to be eaten! We are looking forward to the last two weekends of open farm days and our season-end sale on select products in the Farm Stand. We will be closing for the season after the Sunday of Labor Day Weekend, but we will still be open to members through October 30. For the public, we will have pop-up open-farm days in the Fall, so stay tuned to find out when we will be open for your labyrinth fix!

In addition, we are relaunching our Virtual Farm Stand where we will still have eggs, produce, lavender products, flowers, and more for pick up. Pickup times after Labor Day are Tuesdays and Fridays between 10 AM and noon. During these special pickup days, the Farm Stand will be open, but the farm grounds and labyrinth will be closed.

This week from the garden, we have freshly picked, organic produce available! Choose from delicious sweet corn, tasty peppers, scrumptious cherry tomatoes, juicy strawberries and blackberries (limited quantity), satisfying edamame, and jumbo onions.

We will be selling most of our nursery plants for 50% off! These are a mostly perennials that will give you and the pollinators great joy into next year too. Get ’em while they last!

Consider purchasing some gift items in preparation for Christmas, and/or for birthdays. We have a variety of lovely gifts to choose from!

Additionally, the Bees N Blooms Calendar is here! Pick one up to enjoy some spectacular photos of our native pollinators or use as a unique gift, with photography by Mark Hullinger.

If you cannot make it to our last few open-farm days, the Virtual Farm Stand is available for people to purchase items for pickup. The Virtual Farm Stand will be open for pickups throughout the fall.

Last but not least, don’t forget to get a ticket for one of our tours on Labor Day Monday! We will be sharing knowledge about lavender, all things bees, and how to create habitat for pollinators. Free gifts included with each ticket. Spots are filling up fast, so be sure to get a ticket if you are interested in learning from us! The farm will otherwise be closed on Labor Day Monday. If we need to cancel due to air quality, full refunds will be made. We’ll make that call on Friday, September 4.
