What We Hope To Have in August & Spetember
This list is based on the weather behaving. If it is hot, most things will start later. Cool can mean later or earlier, depending on how cool.
Middle of Summer - Work in Progress!
The rain softened the branches and we had some tree damage to our pear and plum trees |
Rain rain go away. Chelsea wants to come out and play :( |
The poor pigs had their pen flood almost everyday (sometimes twice a day) |
And of course all the wet made things - like these peaches - rot |
We had a good crop of gooseberries though |
The swiss chard hasn't done too bad - which is good since it is a family favorite |
The cool spring made the strawberries late. But we enjoyed them just as much |
We managed to get a good crop of cherries picked between storms |

Highland Orchards Farm Market, is a small, family-owned and operated farm in northern Delaware, established 1832. We grow fruits and vegetables without synthetic chemicals or pesticides. We sell our produce through our farm market located on the farm, through our CSA program, and at two farmers’ markets in Philadelphia. Real food, a real farm, for people who really like to eat!
