Hattie’s Garden delivery/pickup service continues to bring you fresh and wholesome food. We are now taking orders for the Saturday, February 5 Pickup/Delivery Service.

We are also open at the Garden, located at 31341 Kendale Rd in Lewes, on Saturday from 9 to 2 for casual shopping. While we keep most items in our inventory, some items may run out and it is best to purchase through the online order system if you want to be sure to get everything you want.

The deadline for placing your February 5 order is Tuesday at 8PM. Otherwise, please stop by the Garden on Saturday during our open hours.

What’s Available through the Online Order System

The following items are available now to order for the February 5 pickup/delivery service.

Hattie’s Garden continues to harvest baby carrots. These are as sweet as they come and a real gourmet treat. Don’t peel them, just eat them raw or roasted lightly. We now have available arugula microgreens and mixed microgreens in limited quantities. Once we can get back into the hoophouse in a couple of weeks, our selections will increase exponentially! The colder than normal weather has moved our operation inside where space is limited.

As mentioned last week, we have launched our Plant CSA and it will run through February. Please sign up as soon as you are able.

And last, but certainly not least, Jen from Flying Squirrel Garden will be making dessert and savory pot pies this week for you. Jen uses mostly organic ingredients in her pies, including the produce she has grown in her pesticide-free garden. The pot pies easily provide two servings and her fruit and dessert pies rival any I have ever tasted. She uses a homemade crust made with butter for all the pies and bakes garlic into the crust for her pot pies. Limit is two per customer as long as supplies last.
