Despite operating for over 100 years, the vision of Ideal Dairy has remained unchanged: they’re committed to the production of quality milk for their community. Ideal Dairy first began selling milk to local residents around 1908. These folks are just a few miles down the road from our Fort Edward store. Located in Hudson Falls, NY, Ideal Dairy Farms is a great local dairy farm.

produce season in the Northeast? Visit our blog and check out our Ready Magazine.Īt Price Chopper & Market 32, we pride ourselves on providing our customers with fresh, close to home ingredients. Our local farmers deliver consistently during this time, and we can’t get enough! This amazing season seems to go by in the blink of an eye, much like the holidays do, and typically lasts until mid-September. Our Produce teammates smile from ear to ear, pun intended, as crates from friends like Shaul Farms in Fultonham, New York, Paul Mazza Farms in Colchester, Vermont, and more start to arrive. Sometime between mid and late July each year, our favorite point in the local agriculture season hits: sweet corn season.
It’s delicious, as was the Floridian and Georgian corn, but we’re chomping at the bit for corn from our backyard! While we prepare for the mid-July checkered flag on our beloved local sweet corn, we source our corn in parts of North Carolina and Delaware, where local corn season has set in. Weather factors heavily into almost all of the crops we source locally each year, and sweet corn is no exception. Northeastern cornstalks have sprouted by the end of the month, in preparation for harvest in a few weeks. We move our map pin from Florida to Georgia and begin bringing in Georgia-grown sweet corn for a while. Around here, the weather heats up, the sun stays out and our sweet corn starts to come a bit closer. Early in what we like to call “grilling season,” we’re usually tapping into Florida’s sweet corn season, as our Northeast farmer’s plant, water and tend to their fields.īy June, the summer season is officially setting in.
#CHOPPER HIGHEST BOUNTY FULL#
Warmer weather typically hits our region in full force by mid-May, and the people of the Northeast hit their backyards. It’s one of our favorites to enjoy all summer long, especially in peak growing season here in the Northeast! We’re proud to source sweet corn locally when the season rolls in, but did you know that this crop takes a sourcing journey all the way up East Coast each year, before our region’s annual bounty hits?
