The stand is open all weekend 9-6!

Self-serve: we can take PayPal, Venmo, cash or checks.

We still have a lot of fresh veggies all pay what you can! I am thrilled that so many canning tomatoes found homes this week!

Now that we’re descending into fall, plants are starting to slow down and prepare for winter. While it might not be the most “popular” time to garden, in my opinion fall is the BEST time for planting perennials!

Planting in the fall gives perennials a chance to establish in the soil before the real cold weather hits. That extra time to establish this year gives them a HUGE boost next year. If you want to guarantee that you’ll be harvesting elderberries next year, plant them now in the fall!

We still have a good selection of plants here at the stand, elderberries, gooseberries, arborvitae, forsythia, perennials and more!

Come visit us at 3175 E Pitchin Rd., Springfield (old white fence)

Restocking pay what you can veggies every day until they’re done!

Stop by and grab cherry tomatoes, slicing tomatoes (Brandywine and Gold Medal), cucumbers and lots of peppers! Today we put out mini bells, hot bananas, jalapeños and shish*tos.

If you’re grilling, I strongly recommend the shish*tos! They are great to toss with a little sea salt and quickly char for an easy side dish.

I have a TON of Roma tomatoes this year, perfect for making sauce! If you’re interested in 10 pound quantities, hit me up! They’ll likely only be available this weekend.

All veggies are pay what you can! 3175 E Pitchin Rd., Springfield OH

Four years ago I asked for a very specific pear tree. My sweet husband couldn’t find one anywhere around and special ordered me a very expensive, very pitiful twig of a tree. Four years later and I’m harvesting my first ‘Seckle’ pears and they’re everything I hoped they would be.

Also four years ago we launched the roadside stand and what a journey it has been. I hope we’ve helped you find more unique plants at better prices!

Rhubarb

This versatile and often under appreciated vegetable.

Often folks think of strawberry rhubarb pie and of course that is delightful. However, you can also stew it, make it into jam or compote, add it to muffins, roast it for a topping for yogurt, sautée it for a quick side dish.

The prime time to harvest is in early spring but once a plant it well-established, you can take a few leaves at a time all through the summer.

Just a few pots left up at the stand for only $6 each!

I try and grow a new veggie every year. This year it’s popcorn and Jupiter peppers. The verdict is still out on the popcorn, but the Jupiter peppers have been a hit. They’re small red bell peppers. The plants are incredibly productive and are covered in fruit. I think their smaller size helps them ripen sooner than a traditional bell and even though we’ve had lot of humidity this summer they’ve had no fungal issues at all.

My kids have been enjoying snacking on them for lunches and they cooked up beautifully for lunch the other day as grilled stuffed peppers.

Currently some up at the stand if you’d like to give them a try!

Guineas: peck first ask questions later

Clearly I’ve given these guys too many treats if their first instinct is to peck whatever is near my hands 😆

A sprinkling of weigela blooms in late summer.

In the spring, weigela is a show-stopper. It’s branches are covered in an explosion of trumpet-shaped blooms. It also tends to flower right at the time the hummingbirds migrate back to our area, which is fitting as they love this plant.

While considered a springtime favorite, it’s not uncommon for them to give a little show in the late summer as well. Pictured here are blooms off the varieties: red prince and my favorite, a dual color white/pink.

We still have a great selection of weigela available at the stand now, only $6 for a gallon sized plant!

The frantic pace that summer took caused me to miss the first harvest of Bob Gordon elderberries.

Thank goodness Wyldewood comes in a bit later once the first bit of back-to-school craziness of summer has mellowed.

I’m processing these into elderberry concentrate that can be mixed with local raw honey (mine is from Stamy Acres LLC) for a delicious and immune supporting syrup.

Wild varieties and Bob Gordon established plants are currently available at the stand! $8 and $10 for a gallon sized pot.

Cuttings from Bob Gordon, Wyldewood and the Wild varieties will be available during our cutting sale in January!
