It's that time of year again. Pears are being picked for vanilla pear jam, pear preserves and pear relish. It's also time for muscadines. We picked 2 bushels of the grapes last weekend and we are eagerly anticipating the sweet muscadine jelly.
We look forward to sharing our produce with you this coming weekend.
Eat Local!!
Hope to see you again this weekend. Arrive early and beat the heat!!
Due to the excessive heat predicted this weekend, we will only be at the market for a half day in Forsyth.
No worries though shop early before the humidity sets in. We will be open and ready to serve you at 7:30 AM.

A wonderful mid-summer combination of garden gifts! Backyard full of peppers and front yard full of figs. Time to make pickled peppers, fig jam, whole fig preserves, and bourbon fig jelly.
We go to great heights to harvest and bring to you Fig Jams-Jellies-Whole Fig Preserves. We are always excited when the figs arrive and they have in abundance this week. Just wish the squirrels did not know it was time to harvest! They are relentless in gathering figs each day. The fig war has begun!
Excited to find the first round of figs! We love this time in July when the Strawberry Fig Jam, Whole Fig Preserves, and Bourbon Fig Jelly becomes a daily ritual in the Backyard Garden kitchen.
Come and check out the seasonal additions to our farmer's market table.
Not only do we share with you various jams, jellies, and pickles from the Backyard Garden we share the dill plants with Monarch Butterfly Caterpillars! Looking forward the the fall when the butterflies emerge and grace the gardens.
