It’s hot and dry here in the Deep South, but
we’ve been blessed with summer’s beautiful bounty.
In case you didn’t know, our products taste so
good because 90 percent of the produce is picked right here from our
farm. What we don’t grow, our local farmers (they’re our friends, too!)
provide for us. Tomatoes (toe-maters), squash, green beans, strawberries,
blueberries, cucumbers, peppers and more are picked daily and brought in to
wash and start preparing to put away for later enjoyment.
That to me is the nicest pleasure in the cold
days of winter, when the colorful garden and flowers are gone. I open a
jar of my fresh salsa, or blueberry jelly and I smell the fresh garden
again. All the warmth, sunshine and fun memories with my kids come
rushing back and make me so happy. And it tastes so darn good too,
ya’ll!
Check out this truck load of freshly picked
tomatoes and peppers from our field! My son, Hal, is helping us load them
up so that we can use them in our products! Excited about this batch!
