August 15 Pickup/Delivery Service
Hattie’s Garden delivery/pickup service continues to bring you fresh and wholesome food. We are now taking orders for the Saturday, August 15 Service.
The deadline for placing your order is Tuesday at 8PM. We suggest you place your order as soon as possible to be sure you get what you want, as we do run out of some things.
Fall Planting
Fall planting is underway. In just a couple weeks we will be able to offer our young arugula, loose leaf lettuce, and mesclun. September will see the return of hakurei turnips and the beginning of our young ginger harvest. We are planting carrots, spinach, beets and Swiss chard for harvesting in October. We will continue to offer additional produce items from our other vendors as they become available.
What’s Available through the Online Order System
The following items are available now to order for pickup or delivery on Saturday, August 15.
Hattie’s Garden continues to bring you beautiful pints of cherry tomatoes. We have an abundance of gorgeous basil, and are offering a one pound size of loose basil at a discount for those of you who would like to put up some pesto this year. Don’t forget to order some of our heirloom hard neck purple-striped garlic for your pesto and other needs.
We have plenty of heirloom tomatoes that you can purchase when you pickup your order Saturday, or during our open hours Wednesday and Thursday from 10 to 1. Unfortunately, we are unable to put them into our delivery order system, since they are sold by weight and we feel picking out your larger heirloom tomatoes is a highly personal task! Suffice to say, you can’t go wrong for rich smokey acidic flavor with a Cherokee Purple, the superb sweet flavor of a Brandywine, or the complex, fruity flavor of the large Striped German (similar to a Pineapple Bicolor).
Totem Farms brings you corn on the cob, patty pan squash and plenty of microgreens and Fresh Harvest has nice hydroponic salad ingredients.
We also have whole chickens and chicken liver from Dittmar Family Farms, free-range chicken eggs from Twin Post, delicious fresh-to-order gourmet food from Nancy’s Cafe, a great assortment of fresh mushrooms from King Mushrooms, more than 50 types of homemade jams & jellies from Backyard Jams and Jellies, Alaska Cod, Alaska Rockfish, Coho and Sockeye Salmonn from AlaskaWild Seafoods, fresh honey from Chrissy’s Bees, and fresh cheese from Chapel’s Country Creamery.
Watch for our email late Monday afternoon for what is available during the week for pickup on Wednesday (August 12) and Thursday (August 13) from 10 to 1. That list differs a bit from our order form list as things change here on a day to day basis.
Yours in the Garden,
