Through Farm Stand, you can pre-order certified Biodynamic and Organic vegetables from Against the Grain for pick up at either the Boone Winter Farmer's Market or at the farm for Saturday, December 19th.
In this new version of Farm Stand, you can build your own box from scratch, based on the products that ATG has listed. There is a minimum order value of $15, and the program will lead you through the checkout process once you've met the minimum. If you seem to have issues placing your order, try logging out of the Harvie system and logging back in.
The ordering period for Saturday pick-up still closes at 10pm on Thursday, December 17th.
Feel free to text or call Holly at 828-406-4439 with any questions or issues or if you're concerned your order did not go through.
As the winter solstice approaches on December 21st, the farm is engaged in the work of deep inner reflection in order to fortify the farm organism for the upcoming growing season. The core group of the farm is focusing on topics related to bed preparation, cover cropping, crew team structure, and compost, while the individuals of the core group reflect on their own personal inner work as a mirror to the outer work that transpires during the warmer months.
At this time, the Earth and soil is breathing in and is most awake, soaking up much influence from the planets and stars. The sun is, of course, at it's lowest point in the sky, shortening our days and lengthening our nights. As a farm, we are gifted the opportunity each year at this time to remember that the long days, work and abundance of the growing season will return again. As a farm, we will once again form a team and set our hearts and minds toward the efforts of growing food for our community.
Much love and happy eating,
Holly, Andy and the ATG Crew
