Cromwell's Produce
___________________________________________________________________


Cromwell's produce is picked fresh daily and brought directly to their stand. They offer a seasonal bounty of fruits, vegetables, honey, herbs, flowers and more. Their season begins with strawberries, beets, sugar snaps and may peas; but the real specialty is in late June with sweet corn (the corn is said to be "the best in town"), and moving into July with tomatoes and fresh shelled butterbeans. They also offer a variety of additional produce such as squash, cucumbers, snap beans, melons, greens, lettuce, melons, sweet potatoes, Christmas trees and wreaths. They also bring in special items such as delicious peaches from South Carolina twice weekly.

Cromwell's produce is largely sold at the stand and through farmers markets. Cromwell's stand is located in the Sandbridge area of Virginia Beach on their farm. They are minutes away from Back Bay Wildlife Refuge and public beaches. You can even pick your own strawberries while you are there. Their farm stand is open daily  April-December everyday from 9:00am-6:00pm. You can also find their produce on Saturdays from 8:00am-12:00pm at Old Beach Farmers Market in the Summer.
