- Heirloom Tomatoes — Pick from large delicious Pineapple Bicolor, or the popular Cherokee Purple or the rich, succulent, Brandywine.
- Cherry Tomatoes — Delicious mixed pints.
- Pole Beans — Mixed quarts of green, purple and yellow. Delicious and picked at an early stage, they are sweet and delicious.

- Peppers — Various sweet peppers and a few hot Jalapenos.
- Suhyo Cucumbers — This long, slender Japanese cucumber is mild with few seeds. Sweet crunchy flesh with thin rippled skin that needs no peeling. These cucumbers are a favorite for pickling and salads. Cut the ripe fruit into cubes and add to soup for an interesting and fresh twist.
