June's Bloom

Welcome to the Carters' Farm Newsletter, where you can find information on farm events and produce, our favorite recipes, and reflections from the family. We hope you enjoy this brief update!

The summer sun has allowed the trees and grass to become a rich green again. The lilacs are at full bloom. Last weekend, the first of many farmers’ markets for the 2023 season was held. On offer was Carters’ Chocolate and black pepper, raised from Dwight Carter’s farm in Guatemala.

We anticipate cucumbers and lettuce to be ready in the next couple weeks, and then the first tomatoes in about a month. Whenever they are ready, be sure to check us out at the farmers’ markets in Park Rapids and Walker, MN.
