Last farm open house of the summer is TOMORROW FROM 4-6PM

Posted 8/21/2012 9:07pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell.

Our last farm open house of the summer is tomorrow afternoon, August 22nd from 4 to 6PM. We'll have all the usual suspects: cheese, gelato, eggs, honey as well as our regular farmer/artisan guests: Stewart's Artisan Breads, Tomahnous Farm and Laurence Mate, the knife sharpening dude.  We'll also have our last u-pick of blackberries.  Here's a very satisfied customer whose face speaks volumes to the deliciousness of the berries (followed by some delicious chocolate gelato).

If her face isn't temptation enough, here are some of the gelato flavors we'll have available for single servings tomorrow (plus many more flavors to purchase as pints).

  • Chocolate
  • Hazelnut
  • Mint
  • Stracciatella (chocolate ganache "chip")
  • Lemon Verbena-Thyme

We've got some new fruit sorbetto flavors for you to try including "Autumn Berry."  So, come on out.

On another note, for those of you who tried to get seats to the fall farm dinners, and were not successful, I am sorry. I know some of you experienced some technical difficulties on the website. There was a lot of traffic on the website when  the seats became available at 5PM yesterday, and there were not that many seats for each dinner (we usually post only 40 seats per dinner).  All I can say is, that we are working to make the process easier and as fair as we possibly can.  I will let you all know as improvements are made.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.
