Don’t have space for a backyard garden? Didn’t inherit your mother’s green thumb? Still want to cook with fresh fruits and vegetables?

Experience farm-fresh flavors at home thanks to the northwest Valley’s Gilcrease Orchard, where you can pick tomatoes off the vine for that summer salad or harvest a medley of root vegetables for a hearty autumn stew.

Squash, peas, carrots, beets, greens and zucchini are ripe right now, and the farm stand has green garlic and asparagus. Gilcrease sells produce for eight straight months, so we found out what’s in season through the year.

    GILCREASE ORCHARD Saturday, 7 a.m.-noon (hours change with the harvest). 7800 N. Tenaya Way, 702-409-0655, thegilcreaseorchard.org.
