Make your life easier with our gifts

Monday, November 7th, 2011

Take the hassle out of the holidays–get our gift baskets for those hard-to-give-to people!  They will love getting the gift baskets filled with tasty treats, and you can do it with a phone call (for shippable gifts) or a stop in to the market early in the season, so it is taken care of!  From under $15 to over $50, our bags and baskets are good quality and good value, and they show that you care enough to shop locally!

Our gift basket guru, Margie, has put together wonderful baskets that have no-sugar-added items for those on special diets.  Another  popular option is the breakfast basket, with gourmet pancake mix, pure maple syrup, and more.   Delight Mexican-food fans with a basket containing locally famous La Fiesta chips, local asparagus guacamole, and zesty salsa.   The snack attack basket, filled with munchy treats, makes a nice gift for teachers, coaches, and office assistants.  Need a gift for the boss or co-worker?  We can take care of that, too!  And if you are a business owner with special customers, save yourself time by giving us your list; we provide handmade gift tags with each gift, to add a personal touch!   If you want to send fresh fruit from Michigan, we offer our apple shipper, which nestles each apple in foam for a safe trip to the recipient!

Just remember, early is better!  You’ll enjoy the season more, if you take care of your gifts beforehand!  We’re open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday through December 30 (closed Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day only).

We can make it easy for you to satisfy those hard-to-buy-for family members, co-workers, and office staff.  With our market full of local and Michigan-made gourmet food items, you can find tasty gifts to suit the old and young and all of us who think we’re in between!  We have  ready-to-ship gift baskets, and are happy to put together custom baskets (please just give us some time to complete the custom basket after you order it!).  From no-sugar-added to organic and natural products, we have Michigan treats that are sure to please.    Stop in at our market in Hart and enjoy a complimentary cup of hot spiced cider as you browse!   We have free samples of apples and other products for you to try, as well!  And with any gift purchase, select a complimentary handmade gift tag to fit the occasion.

Enjoy the fruits of summer while you can!

Peach season is moving right along.  We currently have our tree-ripened white-fleshed and yellow-fleshed freestone peaches at the market.  The white-fleshed variety has a tropical flavor; it’s both lovely and tasty when combined with blueberries and/or traditional yellow-fleshed peaches.  We still have plenty of our own vine-ripened cantaloupe and watermelons, and we currently have local blueberries, but the season will end soon.  Our vine-ripened tomatoes are now tasty and looking good!   We now have some late-summer apples from our orchards; Zestar! (the father of SweeTango(R)) and Gingergold are now ripe.  Look for our SweeTango(R) apples by September 1!

New photos on homepage

You know it’s getting toward the end of summer when local melons are ripe!  The photos of our farm in Oceana County on our homepage include some of our melons (we have both orange-fleshed and green-fleshed melons, sweet and juicy), one of our watermelons (we grow several varieties), a close-up of apples showing the typical freckling of SweeTango(R) apples that are turning red (we hope these will make the grade to earn the name!), one of our young orchards which will produce some SweeTango(R) apples around the first of September (the apples will be nice and red by then!), and two photos of peaches ripening.  You may notice the stubs of branches near a couple of the peaches.  Summer pruning is done on peaches; branches without fruit (often growing straight up) are removed to prevent them from shading the fruit.  Peaches need to see plenty of sunshine to develop their beautiful color and juicy sweet flavor.
