The season is changing

The season has definitely changed from the hot, humid days of summer to the cool, breezy days of Fall.

The season change also reminds us that it's planting time again for winter vegetables. Last week we planted beds of broccoli (started from seed using Hydroponics), collards, mustard greens, and turnip greens. Of course, the peppers are thriving in this cooler weather too.

Hope to see you at the Forsyth market on Fridays. Remember you can special order from us all throughout the coming months too. 

Just email me and we can make it happen.

Okra and Jalapeno time

This past weekend the markets were hot and humid but we still had a wonderful time serving our customers. Preorders are increasing too. Just email us what you want by Wednesday of market week and we'll make sure your items will be waiting on you when you arrive. Less time in the heat and no more missing out on your favorites.

Even though our  tomatoes are in short supply and figs are in abundance, we do have other vegetables that are just now entering their peak seasons. Two of those are peppers especially jalapenos and the old southern favorite okra. They arrived at the markets last weekend and immediately became a customer favorite.

The Figs have arrived!!

 At Backyard Garden Creations we look forward to certain milestones for our garden.

Planting, the arrival of zucchini, squash, and green beans. Definitely the first tomato sandwich!  Finally, the last one for the summer is the arrival of our figs. We are excited to offer you whole fig preserves just like your mother used to make, strawberry fig jam and fig jelly. Tasty treats which are homegrown and handmade.

Hope to see you at the markets. Come visit as these items do not stay on the table for a long length of time.
