Summer's Harvest: Local Farms & Produce
Posted by Leslie Kopp & Christi Arndt on Monday, June 3rd, 2024 at 9:30am
Local summer produce is a huge component of what makes summers at the Delaware Beaches so remarkable! Whether it's a seasonal dinner special at your favorite restaurant or spending the day with your family at one of many nearby farms, you're sure to be impressed by the delicious foods that are harvested locally. The Southern Shore is flourishing with options when it comes to accessing locally grown produce at an affordable price. Many farms in the area offer "you pick" days, where guests can pick blueberries, peaches, or whatever the farm specializes in. Additionally, there are several Farmers' Markets in the area where you can purchase from multiple different farms in a one-top shoe, as well as flower vendors and more! Just below is more information on "you pick" farms in the area, as well as local Farmers' Markets and schedules.
