Volunteer Appreciation Day

On August 15th, we had a little celebration for all the wonderful volunteers who have helped us on the farm throughout the season.

There was food, and music and a lot of fun on the farm that day.

Thank you everybody for a great day!

Flowers from the farm

There is nothing like fresh cut flowers.  At Blue Heron, we grow several varieties of edible flowers as well as annuals and perennials that make beautiful bouquets.  The labyrinth of flower garden is magical in itself. You have got to experience it yourself if you can!

Beets!

Happy Fourth of July from Blue Heron Organic Farm!

Our beets are ready - aren't they beautiful? We hope to see you soon!

Blue Heron Farm Peas - freshly picked!

We have peas for you to pick at the farm! They are so sweet and yummy (not to mention pretty!) ! We hope to see you soon.

Peas and Potatoes

The peas are almost ready for picking! Though it will still be a few more weeks before the potatoes are ready, they are getting bigger and giving out beautiful purple flowers.

We hope that you are enjoying the summer, and don't forget to stop by the farmstand or the farmers' markets for fresh produce!

Poppies

Poppies from the farm's flower garden

With the rain and warmth we have had in the recent weeks, the farm is growing so fast! We are at the farmers' markets now with fresh organic produce, and the farmstand is open on Thursday-Sunday from 9-6! We hope to see you soon!

Rhubarb lesson

Hey Farmer Ellery!
Thanks for donating rhubarb for the cooking class with youth from Spontaneous Celebrations at Haley House. We made a delicious crumble as part of the '"cooking local' meal I made with them. For many it was their first time eating rhubarb. Here is a photo of them listening intently to my 'ode to rhubarb' commentary.
