Our fall crops are coming in slowly and we are starting to sell collards and turnip greens. We even had a few red tomatoes. For now we are selling green tomatoes, a southern favorite. The squash is doing well and it is a big seller at the Rockmart Farmer's Market.
The high tunnel continues to frustrate us. Temperature control is an issue and that is affecting the ripening of the tomatoes. Red tomatoes are peeking thru here and there though.
The low tunnel is rocking with nice size green tomatoes. Should be ready (red) by month end. So far the three light frosts have caused only minor damage to the tomatoes.
The farm stand continues to operate three days a week. Squash, tomatoes, pickles and muscadine jelly are the main attractions for now.
Here are the collards and cabbage. The cabbage will be a while yet.
