U-Pick Fruits and On-Farm Cheese Sales this Week
7/26/2010 4:21pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell
Greetings:
Last Saturday's torrential rains in Chicago made for meager cheese sales at Green City Market and Oak Park. So, we have cheese available this week for sale during our u-pick fruit hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5-8PM--chevre, ricotta, Little Bloom on the Prairie, Angel Food and a little bit of feta. The next varieties of peaches are ripening as I write--Sweet Sixteen and Red Havens. There are a few Reliance left, but not many. Peaches are $1.50/lb. We also have big, juicy blackberries available for picking-$3/pint. Come on out to the farm to pick and watch the sunset. It has been quite a display of pinks, purples, oranges and reds lately; not to mention the rise of the full moon over the eastern sky! This place can be such a show off sometimes.
For those of you who have been coming out to the Andersonville Farmers' Market to buy our cheeses, we are taking a break from that market this week. We'll keep you posted on when/if we decide to return to this market.

My name is Tanya Shur and I live in Champaign. I have lactose intolerance, however I can tolerate moderate portions of goat milk. Is it possible to buy from your farm small amounts of goat milk? I would rather support you, than the Supermarket.
Thank you,
Tanya
Thanks and let us know either way.
