Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Hope everyone enjoyed the festivities yesterday. We’re bursting with tomatoes at Ridge to Reef Farm – if you’d like to make a trip to the rainforest today, come by for our event Tomato Jam (details below) @ the farm!

Make sure to check out the fresh local offerings this week – basil, parsley, tomatoes, chlorophyll, mustard greens, plaintain chips, tropical flowers, and more!

Don’t miss out on our bulk tomato specials – order a case of tomatoes for canning, preserving, salsa making and more!

Hope to see you this Wednesday!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The tomatoes are back! We are celebrating with sort of a last-minute mini-mid-day festival about our favorite annual fruits!

PLEASE RVSP for workshop and lunch, as slots are limited. We are trying to make better quality tomatoes a normal thing for the Virgin Islands! This event could be small or big, wet or dry, who knows? We know there will be tomatoes until they are all gone!

Email us back to RSVP:)
