A Love Letter to Summer

There’s nothing like long summer days on the farm.

The air is warm, the soil smells sweet, and the fields are alive with color–ruby red heirloom tomatoes, golden corn, vibrant greens. This is the season when Florida farms really shine. And it’s exactly that peak-season freshness that inspired our new Summer Menu.

We designed this season’s menu to center the best of what’s ripe right now. Crisp cucumbers, juicy beets, sweet corn, and leafy greens that thrive in the heat. Real food, made to cool you down and fill you up–no shortcuts, no seed oils, nothing but unmessed-with deliciousness.

Local Sweet Corn

Summer corn is the moment. The husks are full and green, wrapped tight around rows of golden kernels that glisten like sunlight. When it’s freshly picked, sweet corn doesn’t even need to be cooked—you can eat it raw, right off the cob, and it’s crisp, milky, and sweet in the best way.

We source ours from R.C. Hatton in Pahokee, where the soil is sandy and fertile, and the corn grows tall under the Florida sun. We grill it just long enough to bring out its natural sweetness and finish it with Cotija, lime, and a touch of spice. But the flavor? That comes straight from the source: the fields.

Golden Beets

Not your average root vegetable. These golden beets are earthy and mellow, with a subtle sweetness and a glowing orange hue that matches the sun that grew them. When roasted, their edges caramelize, and their centers get tender and buttery.

We keep them simple—tossed with citrus, olive oil, and topped with pistachio for crunch—because that’s all they really need to pop.

Tomatoes & Cucumbers

Our tomatoes come from Lipman Family Farms in Immokalee, where they ripen slowly on the vine until they’re heavy, juicy, and deep red all the way through. Served raw, simply (un)dressed in olive oil and herbs. You’ll also find them blistered and folded into our Blistered Tomato Farro Salad, where they meet nutty farro, baby arugula, charred pickled onions, cucumbers, and citrus vinaigrette. 

Cucumbers, harvested early in the day while they’re still cool from the ground, are crisp and hydrating. Paired with creamy ranch and summer greens, they’re the bite you crave when it’s too hot for anything else.

This menu is a love letter to the land. Every ingredient has a story. Every dish has a purpose. And every bite is a reminder that when we slow down and sync with the seasons, food just tastes (and feels) better.

So whether you’re stopping in after the beach, grabbing dinner on your way home, or sitting down for a slow meal with friends, we hope you can taste the devotion—from the farmers who harvest to the chefs who cook it all up—in every bite. 

See you at the farm,
