This is a wonderful time of year.
I have enjoyed U-pik strawberries, sweet cherries, blueberries, my own snow peas, herbs and garlic plus roadside supplies of fresh corn, kale, cabbage, yellow/green zucchini, pattypans, tomatoes, cukes, celery, romaine, peppers, sugar baby watermelons, cantaloupe with apricots, peaches and plums brought from Niagara area.
I have been looking for small pickling cakes to use with my heads of dill without success as yet as the current limited ones are ridiculously priced.
Tried some day-neutral strawberries for the first time and they are wonderful in flavour and appearance.
FYI - Dayneutral strawberries are uniquely different from Junebearing types and older everbearers. Dayneutrals have the capacity to flower and fruit continuously which is attributed to their insensitivity to daylength which normally controls flower initiation. They form flower buds under any daylength and continue to grow as long as temperatures are suitable. Dayneutrals produce a fall crop the year of planting; in subsequent years, the production cycle peaks every 6 weeks from June onwards. After the first year, the spring crop starts about 4 to 7 days before the early season Junebearers (e.g., 'Veestar').
