The strawberry field will be open Thursday morning and Friday. Due to rain it will not be open Saturday unless the weather does some big time changes.

The market has lots of good broccoli, kohlrabi, lettuce, dill, chard, greens. The squash and zucchini are excellent right now. Blueberries are beginning to come in. PYO looks like it will be about June 10th.

We are getting in some nice watermelons, beans and corn. Most things that we have been buying ( out of season crops) are much better in quality.

Organic strawberries are holding up well, we are picking excellent squash, kale comes in two different varieties and garlic will be ready as soon as it cures.

Strawberry update May 8

With some drier weather the berries look better. The rains were a little hard on the fruit. The bushes keep adding fruit and people are really commenting on the quality and taste of the berries. The field should be open Monday through Saturday this week. This year crops like kale, chard , kohlrabi, radishes and spinach are somewhat late. But it is here. The kale, broccoli, chard have gotten some very positive comments. We have been working to pay more attention to soil quality and it seems to be reflecting on the crops.

April 3 Strawberry update

Posted 4/3/2016 4:30pm by Sam Bellamy.

The strawberry field will open at 8 am Monday morning. The berries look good and taste very good for the early season. The picking is easy. We encourage you to bring a container to take your berries home in. We have buckets to pick in but will need to charge for a waxed box top ( $1.00 ) if you don't have a container. We are cost conscience on your end as well as ours. So we hope you will bring a container.

So far people have given very positive input regarding the flavor of the fruit. We have some cool weather predicted for this week. Hopefully , we can escape the frost. If the weather permits we hope to have the field open most days. call to make sure, 843-399-6902 or 910-287-6794. I will try to post it days on a blog on the website, www.indigofarmsmarket.com.

The organic potatoes are pushing through very nicely. New varieties are added and planted for this year. The curly mustard will be coming off this week, some very great tasting carrots, organic lettuce and other produce brought in.
