Okra is on!

Even the Bee's like Jason's Fine Okra

Ho-in away! A clean bed makes for easy harvesting!

One of the first okra pods this year!

Beautiful okra bloom!

Okra is part of the Hibiscus family. Can you tell?

Beautiful Burgundy!

First harvest of the year!

That is some good lookin' fried okra! Come and get it at the Saturday market in downtown Boise!

Working in the Incubator in Caldwell

That's a lot of fried okra!


Tallest and strongest plant out there!

Sorry folks. We have not abandoned the blog spot. But I am trying to keep up with a lot these days, so bear with me! The summer heat is upon us, kids are going back to school and the okra is growing like wildfire! Jason and Shelle harvested 50 POUNDS on Monday! Whoa! We just harvested last Friday for market! Fried okra has been selling like crazy at the Saturday market, some people LOVE their okra fried! We have also been selling out of thr fresh we are bringing as well. Hopefully with these 100 degree hot August days we will be at the Incubator pickling 120-150 pounds of okra pickles! Yay! The day I have been waiting for! You just CANNOT get as good of okra pickles around here as Jason's Fine Okra pickles!


 Well, enjoy the updated photos of the farm and come see us at Saturday market!
