🥘🍂 Harvest Season is Almost Here!

We’re excited to announce that our kitchen will soon be featuring 15 tons of Blue Hubbard squash from Ortner Farms Inc. 🌱 Planted around Memorial Day, these beauties can grow to 40–50 pounds each—though the one pictured is still a “lightweight” at about 15 pounds.

💪 Hand-harvested by our local high school football teams, this is a true community effort from field to table.

Starting mid-September, you’ll see this delicious, seasonal squash on our menu. As Chef Lance always says:
✨ “It’s Farm to Family Style.” ✨

Stay tuned!
