Hattie’s Garden will be open this week on Wednesday and Thursday (July 29 & 30) from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m, and Saturday (August 1), 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. for the sale of Hattie’s produce and flowers, and a few artisan food items from our vendors.

Please note for the next few weeks, because of the excessive heat, we will be open during the week on Wednesday and Thursday (no Tuesday) and at earlier times.

No appointment is necessary, but please review our safety protocols below.

For those of you who prefer to place an order for pickup or delivery on Saturday, August 1, remember that deadline is Tuesday at 8 p.m. Please refer to Sunday’s Delivery/Pickup email for more details. And of course, stop by the Garden during our open hours for items listed here that are not available through the order form, or for mid-week groceries.

What’s Available from Hattie this Week

Freshly harvested produce (and flowers!) for pickup from Hattie’s Garden this week includes

• Heirloom Tomatoes — now ripening faster than we can pull them off the vines. We have Cherokee Purple, Brandywine and Pineapple Bicolor for you. Get them while they last.
• Cherry Tomatoes — mixed pints of delicious SunPeach, SuperSweet 100 and Tommy Toe. SunPeach is sweet and delicious and less acidic than some cherries. SuperSweet is another mouth watering delightful cherry tomato. Included in each pint you’ll find a delicious Tommy Toe or two. These larger cherries are a special heirloom from the Ozarks and famous for their rich complex flavor.

Safety First

You may stay in your car and we will come to you. If you get out of your car, you must be wearing a mask and we ask that you maintain your distance from us and others. If you see other customers out of their cars, please remain in your car until the crowd thins out, or allow us to take care of you in turn by coming to your window. (We will wear masks and we would like you to wear one as well.)
