Local Food Notes for June 5

Posted by Jamie Oberdick on 06/05, 2015 at 08:14 AM

- Way Fruit Farm has a wide variety of produce available. Tomorrow, pick-your-own strawberry time starts up, they still have apples available, the season’s first tomatoes and other great produce are in, and they even have strawberry plants for sale.

- Tait Farms sampling Saturday is always a great way to try new local foods, and tomorrow’s version offers up that killer spring combo, strawberries and rhubarb. They throw some curve balls by offering up sangria, cream pies, and other unique recipes featuring strawberries and rhubarb. Also, if you have had animal damage in your garden, they are also offering 50% off tomato plants.
