Frequently Asked Questions

Are these items discontinued?

No. Everything listed here is part of our regular crop plan. These items are simply outside their natural growing season and will return when conditions allow.

When will these items be available again?

Return timing varies by crop and by year. When possible, we list an expected season or timeframe on each item. You can also use the “Notify me” option to receive an alert when an item is back.

Can I reserve or pre-order items now?

We don’t take reservations for out-of-season items. Availability depends on harvest conditions, so the best option is to sign up for notifications.

Why don’t you grow these year-round?

We follow Northeast growing seasons rather than forcing production outside natural conditions. This approach prioritizes quality, flavor, and soil health.
