Holiday Harvest This Sunday

Nov 12, 2018

This Sunday from 11 - 2 we are going to have the pavilion open and stocked up with some late season harvest! We have a great looking crop of broccoli that is ready to bring in from the field along with a surprisingly extensive list of other great tasting late season...

Week 23 Finish Line

Oct 21, 2018

This season felt like a run through the gauntlet. We started with back to back to back Nor'easters in March and fought the weather all season long. It's perhaps a little more of a relief this year just to make it to the finish line of the season! Despite the...

Week 22 Finally Fall

A little bit of a rainy start to the weekend, but the crisp air is finally here to go along with all the Fall favorite veggies. The CSA share will look like this: Lettuce Mix Broccoli Kohlrabi Peppers (Hot & Sweet) Collard Greens Sweet Potatoes Dry Beans Popcorn...

Let It Flow

Oct 7, 2018

The Fall harvest is in an upswing finally. Although the damp and dreary days continue we have a bunch of new crops to harvest this week. Better late than never! We also had a busy weekend harvesting and bottling honey. This Fall honey is a much darker amber color...

Week 20 Ready For Fall

Oct 1, 2018

We decorated the CSA pick up pavilion today! Sorry for the late blog, but we arrived home in the dark on Sunday night and I wasn't quite sure what would be ready to harvest for the share this week. Turns out that we'll have a few familiar items to everyone back in...

Oh Shoot

Sep 23, 2018

Fighting this weather has led to some creativity with what's going in the shares. We threw some leftover pea seeds in the ground a little over a week ago and will be harvesting little pea plants called pea shoots for the shares this week. Us farmers love growing pea...

Week 18 Spuds Are On

Sep 16, 2018

There is no doubt that the 2nd half of the season has been challenging. We have gone a little off track as far as what is going in the CSA shares due to some crop failures and having to harvest the winter squash early due to the fact that the large amount of rain was...

Week 17 Fall Is Taking Over

Sep 9, 2018

There is not much summer left in the weather or in the CSA shares for 2018. This week will most likely be the last week for our eggplant and the first week without tomatoes since early July. We've had a good year of both despite the very challenging conditions...

Week 16 Oodles of Noodles

Sep 2, 2018

We have a very different type of share this week. I think we will have the trusty peppers and tomatoes yet but beyond them it's really going to get different! We are going to have two real southern staple foods okra and collard greens. With the heat predicted this...

Week 15 Pepper Power

Aug 26, 2018

There are a few crops that have just loved this wet summer. One of them is the peppers. We have had quite the harvest of red sweet frying peppers, bells peppers, and now the hot peppers are also really rolling in. The beans are happy too! This week we will have...

Week 14 Helping Hands

Aug 19, 2018

As I am sure everyone can guess, we have a lot of great help on the farm to ensure a successful season. The picture of our crew above was taken this Tuesday. Missing were Brandy and Andeana. With the end of summer closing in and school starting back up we had to...

Lucky Week 13

Aug 12, 2018

Somehow, someway we missed a lot of the rain this weekend. We still had 3/4 of an inch but from the reports I heard about, we were lucky that is all we got. We sure hope we can manage to dodge some more storms this week. We still have a lot of potatoes to dig,...
