Our Marvori, with a fresh tasting tang and Marbonne with a full meaty tomato flavor, seem to really thrive in this late fall weather. The temperature in the hoop house did rise to 80 today.

La Conner Gardens tomatoes are not AI generated but are carefully grown in the Skagit Valley and vine ripened. This harvest is destined for the Anacortes Farmers Market for October 18th. Many of our customers have told us that these are the best tasting tomatoes, reminding them of the ones grown by their grandparents on the East coast.
We also grow peppers (or chilies) like these Jimmy Nardello Peppers.
Rare and delicious!

The selfish part of me wants to keep these a secret. The less anyone else knows about them, the more I get to eat. But, of course, everything about Zingerman’s drives me in the other direction—to actively spread the word about this super tasty, old seed variety, to share its wonderful story and to encourage as many people as possible to enjoy them. If you want to bring a little loveliness into your life in a small but meaningful way, swing by the Roadhouse and order some of these Jimmy Nardello peppers.

If you’ve never had Jimmy Nardello peppers, get ready for one of the most delicious things you have eaten in a long while. Tammie turned me onto them when we first met nine years ago in SF. I think in that first summer, about this time of year, she used to eat them almost every night. Once I tried them it wasn’t hard to understand why—when you pan fry them in olive oil and salt they’re so, so good. Seriously, I can’t get too many of them! We have them on the menu because, in order to get her fix, Tammie started growing her own out at Tamchop Farm. They only come in for a few weeks, so, ’tis the season!

Honeycrisp apples fresh from the tree are so crisp, sweet, and refreshing. Pozanno sauce tomatoes to make a tasty spaghetti sauce with added sweet frying peppers. La Conner Gardens

Temperature expected to drop to 36 degrees so we will pull the crops from the farm stand at dusk and put them inside for protection.
