So far in 2024, we have planted, transplanted, and transplanted again! We started our earliest tomatoes in late January, and more tomatoes, peppers, and other veggies in late February. In early March, we began filling hundreds of pots and planting our hanging flower baskets and bedding plants. We planted potatoes on Good Friday. Throughout April, we have planted our first few sections of sweet corn, peas, onions, beets, carrots, kohlrabi, cabbage, green beans and broccoli. We renovated our strawberry fields, and we will weed them several times before we begin picking strawberries in the second week of June. In May, we will be planting tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini, melons, watermelons, pumpkins, and squash. We will continue to plant more sweet corn roughly every five days until about early-mid July. It is indeed our busy season.
We are now open daily at our greenhouses in East Dubuque Sunday - Friday from 10am-5pm, and Saturdays from 1pm-5pm. We will open our JFK stand on May 3rd. It will be open daily from 9am-1pm in our "pre-corn" season. When our sweet corn begins, we will have extended hours. We begin Dubuque Farmers' Market on May 4th. We will open our Blain's Farm & Fleet stand in early July, date TBD. Check back soon!
During the last 10 years, our sweet corn has began between July 3rd and July 14. Our earliest ever start to our sweet corn season was on June 24, 2012. The timing of our first sweet corn date depends completely on the weather in the early growing season. Our sweet corn typically ends in mid-late September, all weather dependent. We have typically planted our first sweet corn between April 1st - April 22th.
While our produce stand and picking crew positions may be filled, you can still complete and submit an application if you would like to be on a wait list in case something opens up.
We begin accepting applications for produce stand clerks and the picking crew in late spring/early summer. Please submit your application in person at one of our stands, directly at the farm, or at Farmers Market.
