Out to another farm!

Yesterday, we took a trip out to Jones Creek Farm with our friend Lisa. The farm is located near Sedro-Woolly, along Highway 20, by milepost 75.

The farm was having its garlic fest. We tasted several types of garlic, ranging from mild to zippy!

Here's the farmer, looking ferocious. "Try the garlic or else!" But seriously, he and his wife are really nice folks with awesome garlic, tomatoes, and tons of fruit.

Here's a pic of the ginormous peaches! We came home and baked 2 peach crisps! Not pictured are the golden plum trees. We picked about 10 pounds of these and then made 12 jars of jam!

Here a pic of the apples! Jones Creek farm grows over 60 varieties of apples and all of them are delicious. We'll be heading back up to pick apples (can you say pie?) in a few weeks.

Check out their awesome website at http://www.SkagitValleyFruit.com.

I buy tomato starts each year from Jones Creek and have never been disappointed (did you see the photos from the last post?). The future funny farmers love apple sampling once all the apple varieties are in season.

It was also farmers market day yesterday. I snagged the last of the black currents for black current syrup. Guess who's having pancakes for breakfast?
