What Farmer Nick Grows

Produce

Vegetables & Flowers

Farmer Nick is now growing vegetables exclusively for his family, but if there’s an overabundance, they will be available for purchase in the store. All vegetables and flowers are seasonal and locally grown — we don’t source from anywhere else. Flowers are sold either dried or in fresh bouquets, depending on the season. We never spray our vegetables with anything and we only use natural fertilizers. 

Peaches

We grow a variety of delicious peaches, including white flesh, yellow flesh, and donut peaches. When in season, peaches are only available for purchase in our store — we don’t sell them anywhere else. We have two peach seasons each year, one in June and another in September. Be sure to follow us on Facebook or sign up for our email list to stay up to date on peach availability and other farm news!

Blueberries

Our blueberry orchard consists of 1200 blueberry bushes. Our blueberry bushes are not sprayed after the berry has emerged.  We have pick your own blueberries and blueberries that have been picked for you in the store sometimes.

Pick Your Own Blueberry season normally starts mid July.

Apples

As with the blueberry orchard, the apple orchard was also neglected requiring the same care and hard work to remove the bittersweet and prune. In 2018  we were rewarded with our first apples. We are working on identifying the apples we have. We have found historical sketch plans on the years the apple trees were planted but not the varieties or where they are located. 

      We will continue to assess how often we spray  and what to spray so that we can bring you the healthiest apples possible.

Pick Your Own apples normally starts late August.

Strawberries

We do have strawberries for sale in the store when they are ready around mid June. There is NO you pick your own. 

Raspberries/Blackberries

September into October is our raspberry and blackberry picking season, and it’s a great time to visit the farm. Our berries have never been sprayed with any chemicals, so you can enjoy them fresh from the field with peace of mind. We grow both red and golden raspberries, offering a unique and flavorful picking experience you won’t find just anywhere.
