Things sure are heating up! Nice hots spell here to keep watermelons going strong, plus eggplant, green beans and shishito peppers all showing up in the share this week. We hope to see cantaloupes ripens soon, and we have our fingers crossed that the organic sweet corn will turn out ok, although this is very tricky crop for us to grow. Shiitake are also available....and hot sauce too!

Farm Happenings for July 27, 2021
About the farm
We are a seventh generation family farm, raising certified organic vegetables for CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and Farmers Markets. We also raise pastured chicken, 100% grassfed beef and offer pastured pork. We raise food with the intention of taking care of the land: growing healthy soil, healthy plants, healthy animals, and healthy people. Since we are a seventh generation family farm, caring for the land and soil for our children and the next seven generations is at the forefront of our farming practices. We nourish the soil with compost from our farm, and other natural ways to bring nutrients and minerals back to the land to improve the health of the soil, land and crops. We work to maintain a balanced, healthy soil to help grow healthy plants and food. We see our farm as part of a larger community-- a network of people who are interdependent with each other. We grow healthy food for our family, friends and community.
