I love this time of year in Oregon. There is nothing better than fresh sweet corn on the cob and fresh field ripened tomatoes. Add a bit of cantaloupe and peaches for desert and you are in heaven.
There are several places in and around the Eugene/Springfield area to get your fresh produce. The most advertised and well known are Thistledown Farms and Lone Pine Farms (no not loan pine).
It is a long drive from Thurston to get to either of them and still quite a jaunt to get to Johnson Farms off of Game Farm Road. But, it is just a little way down to road to get to Herrick Farms in Walterville. Just head out 126 toward the mountains and right after you cross the McKenzie River, look for Herrick Farms on the left.
The have great produce all through the summer into the fall. The great taste of Bodacious Corn or Hermiston Melons is a summer treat. See you at the Farm.
