Wednesday Pick List (including fresh cantaloupe!!!)
Wednesdays seem to roll around so quickly! Look at those cantaloupe and fresh figs and imagine them on your dinner table. I was just thinking that this morning while reading the news (which generally seems all bad) that sharing local food with people you care about is always good news. Some of you have said that its hard to get to the market before 6 pm Wednesdays when you are working . If you are one of those people, please email us at annethfarm@gmail.com on Wednesday morning and we will confirm we have what you need, make up an order to pick up at the end of the day and invoice you. Give it a try… Only on Wednesday mornings please.
Anyway here is what we have today: Cantaloupe, figs, tomatoes, eggplant, beans, herbs, kale, hot and sweet peppers, red and white onions, garlic, cucumbers, zucchini and pattipan squash. See you at the stand… if you remember to ask while you are here, we can take you to see our goats adorable summer habitat and you can have a short goat snuggle…that is really good news!
9420 West Saanich Road from 10:30 am to 6:00 pm.
GET IN THE CAR!!! Anneth Farm Special Market today..
Yup … Its not Wednesday but because we were unable to be at the North Saanich Farm Market on Saturday, we are open TODAY, Monday, from 4 pm to 6:30 pm. But we suggest getting there early because look at what just got ripe! Our gorgeous cantaloupe and figs. Not to mention tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, beans, herbs, and kale, garlic and onions. Come on down … just remember the cantaloupe and figs are not something that appear at every market and are here for a short time. Call your friends and START THE CAR!!!! (or on second thought if you live close get on your bike …healthier for our world!)

Wednesday Farm Gate Market Heat Wave Protocol
Hello everyone! We will be having our Wednesday Farm Gate market this week but are making a few adjustments due to the extreme heat. Our produce will be kept in a cool room or fridge so when you come it may take a little extra time for us to get it for you. Also some produce will literally be picked at the time you come, to ensure freshness. This may re -define “slow food”!! Please be patient. If you wish you can text us at 250 885 4292 just before you come. Or email us at annethfarm@gmail.com.
Having said that we have a LOT of lovely produce and that includes our gorgeous blueberries. These are already picked for you and in a cool location.
