 Join us as we continue to celebrate the season of “fummer” here at the farm! This rare season occurs when the weather conditions are perfect for our produce stand to be fully stocked with the finest produce that’s available during both summer and fall. Our sweet corn, mini new potatoes and Ontario field tomatoes continue to be in season, and we are happy to offer beautiful, homegrown orange and white pumpkins. You can visit “At The Door” for directions to our farm.

Today is Food Day Canada where we celebrate the abundance of farm fresh, local produce available this time of year in Canada. The theme is “sharing,” so I’m reposting seven original recipes for interesting new potato and sweet corn dishes. These recipes were all developed and taste tested in my kitchen. New potatoes and sweet corn are available at our farm stand as well as gorgeous tomatoes, onions and cabbage from local farms. You can visit “Freezing Sweet Corn” to see how you can enjoy the taste of summer in the dead of winter. Click on the links below to print or download the recipes of your choice. Bon Appétit!

 Indulge yourself with these gorgeous local field tomatoes. Their superior flavour is only available during the height of the summer. We have them ready and waiting for you at our farm stand. We also have some new, unwashed potatoes and the finest sweet corn from Norfolk County. (Yes, our sweet corn will be ready very soon.) Hope to see you this weekend!

Meanwhile, at the back of the farm…While Johnny has been stealing all the social media glory planting our potatoes, Curtis has been quietly planting our highly anticipated sweet corn crop for many weeks now. The planting of sweet corn is spaced out over 2 months to ensure that we always have a ripe section to pick for our customers. This video was shot as Curtis just started planting our second field. You can visit “Sweet Corn Fields” to see an aerial video of our sweet corn fields in full flower.
