The first frosts of winter are upon us and our beautiful mountain is once again donning its white winter coat. We thank you all for your support of our farm this summer. It has been a rewarding and successful year for us with the installation of the bird netting that allowed us to increase our harvest four-fold, bringing more beautiful blueberries to market and giving our u-pickers a more fruitful season. We are excited to introduce our new online products. You will find this yummy trio, Blueberry Mango Chutney, Blueberry Mango Salsa and Blueberry Lemon Preserve described and pictured on the Products page. They are newly available for purchase to our Washington neighbors in a ready to ship, ready to gift sampler.
These recipes, made from our blueberries, have been part of our farm from its inception. They have brought smiles to the faces of our friends and relatives for years and we hope that they will do the same for you. The addition of these products allows us to serve you on a year round basis. Each of these products contains our organic fruit and is preservative free. They are also shelf stable, which means that they ship and keep well for future use.
You can also follow their farmers market availability on our Facebook page. We will post on Facebook when we are in markets this winter.
The winter brings new indoor projects with the addition of space for packaging equipment that will help us gently sort, clean and package fruit for market. As our harvest load increases so does our need for mechanical packaging assistance so we can bring the freshest fruit possible to you in the daily markets.
We wish you all a safe and prosperous new year and warm, cozy moments this winter. We look forward to seeing you in markets this winter, as space becomes available, hearing from you at our online store, and visiting with you again at our farm and in farmers markets next spring and summer when the weather warms and our plants reawaken.
