Harvest of the Month

Harvest of the Month | Melons

If you’ve never had the pleasure of cutting into a perfectly ripe locally grown melon, this is your year! In the Adirondacks, locally grown melons only start to appear with sweet corn and winter squash, right around when kids start heading back to school. Once the frost comes, they are done. Read more in the Adirondack Almanack here.

What does "organic" mean?

It can be hard to understand all of the similar and complicated food labels that allude to how something was grown or raised. It is helpful to know what different labels and certifications mean to help you make informed choices about how your food made it onto your plate. We compiled a collection of common definitions of terms used to describe how food is grown and processed.
