If you had a cooler full of melons, and were half crazy with a lack of sleep, you would be in a panic, too!
Here’s the honest truth…the melons are in the cooler…the cooler is 38 degrees which is optimal for cantaloupe…they will keep 10-14 days at that temp…it is a holiday…we have been going 100 miles per hour getting the garden harvested…it is Labor Day Weekend but we don’t HAVE to labor.
Won’t be on the corner of 10th and Big Horn today–see you all next week 4:30-6:30 for Fruit Pick up, CSA Pick up, AND MELON SALES! For those following this blog that are not members–come, too, and buy at that time.
If you have your heart set on that juicy watermelon for the family picnic don’t go to the store and buy one from TEXAS that came off the vine before it was completely ripe–COME HERE TO THE FARM FOR TODAY AND BUY DIRECTLY OUT OF THE COOLER! (SALE PRICE POSTED EARLIER STILL HOLDS FOR TODAY)
Happy Holiday–The Farmer’s Harried (and half crazy) Wife

The melons are very good. I was wondering if it is too late for an order of box of peaches?

The deadline was Friday–but I’ve ordered a few extra boxes to split into 5# boxes to sell on Pick Up day for $6. If that will work let me know and I’ll put your name on a mini-box for Thursday. I also will have eggs–no hormones, no antibiotics–for $3.75. Picked up enough on my Friday trip for everyone. Still will be getting Janet’s eggs for the Tuesday/Wednesday people. Terri
