All Things Grow

07/27/2024

End of July abundance is here! All of these freshly harvested goodies and more will be heading to tomorrow from 10 am to 1 pm! I am SWIMMING in Shish*tos, give them a try! Delicious Japanese grilling pepper - a little bit of a neutral oil, blister over medium high on the bbq or in a hot pan, finish with a touch of toasted sesame oil or olive oil and some flaky salt - SO GOOD. They’re fairly mild, but once in a while you’ll get a bit of heat! Very mild heat. Like 20x less than a jalapeño.

Dahlias, and sunflowers, and potatoes, and green beans, and shish*tos, and basil, and garlic, and summer squash have all arrived!!!!

🌿 Exciting News! 🌸 We’re happy to announce that All Things Grow will be a vendor at the Belwood Farmer’s Market for the 2024 season! 🎉 Join us every Sunday at 24 N Broadway St in Belwood, ON from 10 AM to 3 PM, starting May 19th and running until October 6th.

🌽 The is just a 15-minute drive from our farm - super local produce and flowers. 30 minutes from Guelph, and 10 minutes from Fergus. We can’t wait to be part of this beautiful market, right near the Grand River. Follow for updates and details about other vendors.

🥕 Sadly, we learned earlier this season that the Aberfoyle Farmer’s Market, which has been running for 13 years and we had been a part of for the past two, has been permanently cancelled. We’ll miss seeing all our vendor friends and the wonderful customers we’ve connected with. Wishing all the other vendors from the best of luck wherever they’re vending this year, and thank you to the organizers and Aberfoyle board for all of the support and for creating a really great experience at Aberfoyle. We’ll miss you all! 💚

🌻 Stay tuned for our roadside stand schedule, coming soon!

🌱 It’s been absolute chaos getting prepped for market a month early, but finding out about Aberfoyle’s cancellation was bittersweet as it came at EXACTLY the right time to get our seeding started earlier for a different market. 🙌 See you on Sunday!

COLOURS!! As the season winds down, we’re constantly staring at the forecast, expecting first frost any day now. Average is Sep 25, forecast says Oct 23 but lol @ meteorology this year. 😂

We’re expecting this might be the last weekend for dahlias, zinnias, sunflowers, strawflower, and other tender annuals - unless we get lucky!

Thank you so much to everyone for supporting local, organically grown, no-till flowers this year!!

Hello there, little (big) friend in my scabiosa. Don’t mind me, make yourself at home and uh…I’ll just harvest around you, k?

Also, please stay where you are. You’re a little bit creepy.

Dahlia season is in full swing and I just can’t get over how cool this bloom is. This variety is only an average producer, but I’m definitely going to need more for next year, just for the surprise in every bloom

I don’t think I can even explain how exciting this little handful of zinnias is. It feels like I’ve been waiting FOREVER for these little lovelies to bloom and they’re every bit as bright and joyful as I was hoping for. Give me all the summer brights 😍

Come by and see us at the Aberfoyle Farmers Market today - we’re here til 1pm!

The lime millet/sunflower combo is irresistible! Only one of these babies left, but we have lots of other options still! Swipe to see the incredible radishes Christina harvested at 5am this morning 😳

When the world’s best little farmhand (who helps out about 50% of the time without complaining, which seems pretty good for 5) asks for her own bouquet and then says “Momma, take a picture of me with my flowers like the girl! Like the Floret girl!” You have to do what she says.

We watched together as a family several months ago, and apparently even the littlest one was inspired.

Lots of beautiful veggies and flowers at the roadside stand today. My favourites are the bouquets made by the 5-year-old farmhand. ❤️🥹
