Wickham harvest calendar

July 14

Here’s the latest on the Wickham harvest calendar:

Sweet corn, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, blueberries, fingerling potatoes, beefsteak tomatoes, field cherry tomatoes, and heirloom cherry tomato mix are all available at the farmstand.

Our blueberry field is currently open for pick-your-own. Please call ahead at (631) 734-6441, as watering and mowing may cause blueberry pick-your-own to be unavailable.

Stay tuned later on in July for field tomatoes and peaches, which are likely to be ripe in a couple of weeks.

Fox

Can you spot the fox? Wickham’s Fruit Farm supports the community by providing a large area of habitat for wildlife, including croplands and woodlands.

Sweet corn

July 12

We are proud to announce that this week we feature at the farmstand our first sweet corn of the season. Our early sweet corn varieties include Renaissance, which is known for its tender kernels.
