From tree fruits such as peaches, cherries and nectarines, to the ground crops of melons, onions, peppers and vine-ripened tomatoes, planning healthy meals doesn’t get easier. And for those of us who are looking forward to fresh apples, the first summer varieties are soon to be picked. August is, without a doubt, a busy time at the farm; in the fields as we harvest all these crops, and in the kitchens as we transform the harvest into mouth watering delights. Now that we have fresh tomatoes, the summer menu in the Farmhouse Cafe is back! The Davison family’s favourite sandwich, “Tom’s Toasted Tomato,” and our customer favorite, “Field Fresh” (a freshly baked whole wheat croissant, loaded with fresh veggies) are two tasty reasons to come up and enjoy lunch on the patio.
