Produce Picture Day!
It’s picture day!
Thank you for all for a fantastic Saturday at the Farmer’s Market. It was so nice to see y’all and I’m happy to make my new friends. Thought I’d share a few pics from the homestead:
My front field of oil sunflowers, so pretty! These will be pressed for salad dressing oil. Mmm!
My gorgeous red amaranth going to seed and putting on a spectacular display! These will be for sprouting crimson red micro-greens.
This is my second planting of purple hull peas. The first planting is almost ready to harvest.
A close-up of those babies!
Nothing goes to waste on my homestead. My horse and goats are quite spoiled from all the corn shucks this morning!
Getting my new signage ready to be installed in front of my homestead. Look for these along the roadsides soon, too. I’ll be making up more and putting them out as the year progresses!
At The Senatobia Farmer’s Market!
I’m here @ Senatobia Farmers market!
I’ve been up since 2am baking zucchini bread. I even made samples. Only 3 loaves left-$5 each. Come grab em while they are still warm!!
I have the LAST CABBAGES OF THIS SEASON HERE TODAY!! Get them while you can .50 a pound.
Organic rutger tomatoes. Ripened on the vine 4/$1 (red or green)
Organic contender green beans $1 a pound.
Onions 4/$1 – almost to the end of the onions for this season. Get them while you can!
Zucchini 2/$1
Honeydew $3 each. Only a few left for today, they are selling fast.
All field corn for today sold out already! I’ll pick more for next market day.
Fresh-Picked Produce!
I will be at the Farmers market tomorrow (Friday 7/28) morning. I’m hoping to make it there between 9 and 10am. I’ll be picking fresh produce starting at 5:30am (barely sunrise light to work by ?). I had such a great time chatting with all the folks today. I love making new friends at this market. Hope those NEW YORK visitors come back to chat with me more. <wink wink>
I will have fresh picked, red and green tomatoes. Special note: my tomatoes are grown from Rutgers and Amish paste heirloom plants. No chemicals have been sprayed and no artificial means of ripening them has been used. They might need an extra day or 2 in your window sill to finish ripening but they’ll taste like how you remember when your grandmother grew them.
jalapeños-
They ARE HOT!
Honeydew- big and crunchy, with a slightly sweet flavor. Very refreshing in the hot summer sun.
Onions- yellow and reds.
Cabbages- only a few left! Grab them while you can.
Yellow squash and zucchini- large ones for baking.
Field corn- it’s starchy and creamy. Silver queen heirloom variety.
Green beans- young tender baby’s or large full bean pods. I’ll have both kinds. Steam the babies or add the full size beans to salads, casseroles, soups and stews.
Bring your hungry bellies and take home some fresh and tasty goodies! *Sorry, I’m not able to accept EBT cards or vouchers this year. ?
PS- I’ll be cooking up a veggie stir fry for my lunch. You’re welcome to join me- free of charge.
Later: Mmmm mmmm mmm
I made some sautéed baby green beans and yellow tomatoes, caramelized yellow onion, and crumbed pork sausage stir fry….
Made some hoe cakes with red pepper and jalapeño bits to go with …. yum yum
Y’all should have been here to share it with me. ?
Maybe next time!

Good Morning For Planting
Good morning folks! I will NOT be at the Senatobia Farmers Market today. I am however, working on planting our fall crop of red potatoes. I say “our crop” because it is being grown for all my friends, customers and my family. (Pics of this mornings progress below)
I’m planting a half acre of taters and using my own self propagated organic/NON-GMO seed. Doing it with just my trusty shovel so it’s going slow, but every inch of dirt I work in, is done with love!
As many of you know, I’m new to MS. I only bought this raw land Dec 29th and have been steadily working on improvements ever since.
I’ll miss chatting with you guys today and I can’t wait to visit with y’all again on next market day. I hope you’ll continue to follow along on my little Coldwater, MS Homestead journey!
800 linear feet of taters planted today!
Plus I dug out 340 square feet of dirt to make future permanent irrigation/drainage ditches.
That’ll be it for tater row work today. Now on to next homestead tasks!
