I have driven by the sign along 133 a number of times, but this time my curiosity got the better of me so I pulled in to Blue Moon Farm on Choate Rd in Essex. It’s a small nursery FULL of young veggies, hanging plants, annuals (with more to come as the weather gets better) as well as very helpful and friendly staff. I chatted with owner Patti Byrne who told me many people have been asking for tomatoes but she will be offering them closer to Memorial Day weekend when they (and the soil) will be ready for them. Cindy Greely Beck was attending the check out and she mentioned that her parents follow Good Morning Gloucester from Florida, so a hearty shout out to them! Thanks for the follow! Anyhow, get to Blue Moon Farm on Choate St off 133 in Essex before the end of the seedling season. It was a delightful visit. Spring plantings offer SO MUCH HOPE.
