Join local cookbook author Stacy Dermont at the annual reopening of Marilee Foster’s farmstand at 698 Sagg Main Street, in Sagaponack, 10am-5pm.
Dermont will be signing copies of her best-selling regional cookbook and wine-pairing guide The Hamptons Kitchen. Co-written with Bridgehampton’s Hillary Davis, the tome features gorgeous photos by Barbara Lassen — including shots of Marilee’s Farmstand produce.
The stand will be open every Friday, and expanding to other days of the week as more crops come in.
Look for events at the stand throughout the season including pop-up vendors like the Springs Brewery, as well as farmer talks and more.
It’s not too late to sign up for Marilee’s Farmstand weekly CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program. In fact, you can do so on a weekly basis. Visit marileesfarmstand.com for all the details, including discounts for seniors, teachers, healthcare workers, EMTs and firefighters, and pick-up and delivery options. A weekly email tells you what’s in each $50 basket. Every basket features a range of fresh and expertly preserved goods, and a recipe.
The Fosters are famous for growing the best of local crops in the Foster Farm’s rich Bridgehampton Loam for six generations. Today Marilee and her brother Dean raise 30 acres of vegetables alongside 200 acres of the potatoes and grains. Marilee Foster specializes in heirloom tomatoes, and farms a full range of seasonal vegetables year-round.
