This is the week......

 So many reasons to come to Sauvie Island Farms this week.....

Blueberries:  The Blue Crop blueberries are loaded with sweet ripe fruit now. They have all ripened at the same time and they are so easy to pick.  They need to get picked as soon as possible or they will drop to the ground.  This is the week for picking blueberries!

Some Liberty blueberries are starting to ripen also.

Raspberries:  We surprisingly still have sweet nice raspberries for you to pick.
There is a lot of heat damage in these, but if you look down low in the vines, you can find nice berries.

Marionberries:  Beautiful sweet marions are also hiding in the vines.  A lot of dried up damaged fruit on the top of the plants, but look low inside the shaded areas.

Yellow raspberries:  These suffered the most from the high temperatures we had at the end of June, but there are new fresh berries ripening up. Just look around for them.

Chester Blackberries:  These are just starting to ripen.  There are beautiful berries hiding in the midst of the jungle of vines.  Since these bushe are thornless, it is an adventure to search for the ripest berries.  There are lots more to ripen in the next couple of week.

RED HAVEN PEACHES:  We are opening the orchard on Thursday July 22.  These peaches are classified a free stone, but they do cling to the pit a little.      They have a sweet peachy flavor which makes them a favorite of many.

Veggies: zucchini, cabbage, slicing cukes  

Pickling cucumbers: in the next few days the picking will be great for pickle sized cukes.   

Green beans: small amount right now with more to ripen in the next week.

Herbs: Dill, cilantro, basil, chamomile, sage, rosemary

Flowers:  LAVENDER.  The lavender is blooming NOW.  It will be over done after this week.  Its the best time to come and cut fresh lavender.

Lot of zinnias, cosmos, bachelor button, glads, daisies, amaranthus, and SUNFLOWERS!!!
