What late summer tastes like

A good late-summer farm bag might include peaches, tomatoes, basil, cucumbers, corn, blueberries, blackberries, flowers, eggs, cheese, and early apples. It is the easiest season for a farm-stand dinner.

Slice tomatoes with salt. Grill corn. Make peach shortcake. Put basil in everything. Keep a bouquet on the table. If early apples are available, eat them fresh first and save the baking varieties for later.

How to choose a farm

Choose farms with multiple crops, farm stores, flowers, or food. Late summer can be unpredictable. A hot week can push fruit quickly. A storm can close fields. A farm with several attractions gives you a better day even if one crop is done.

Go early, bring a cooler, and check current updates. This is peak season for both ripeness and heat.
