Farm Happenings at Bountiful Blessings Farm
New chicks coming to the farm!
Hello CSA Family,
We are thrilled to have ordered a new batch of baby chicks! We will be raising these darling little balls of fluff through the winter so they will be ready to lay in time for the start of our spring CSA. We get a lot of good reactions when we have green and blue eggs in our mix, s1 read more »
Strawberries are in the ground!
Fall is a very busy season on the farm as we rush to get all the winter crops in the ground. As the days get shorter, and there is less sunny hours each day, plants take longer to grow, so time is of the essence!
A big event on the farm is strawberry planting. It's typically an "all hand on deck" d1 read more »
Rain, Rain, and More Rain... (9-13-20)
Dear CSA,
Are you all staying dry? Down here in Williamsport, we have been absolutely pounded with rain this weekend, causing severe flooding in many areas of the farm and gardens. In just 24 hours we got over 8 inches of rain, and as I sit here writing it is still raining steadily! Needless to say1 read more »

Welcome to a new fall/winter season!
Hello dear CSA members!
It's hard to believe that once again it is already the start of a new farming season. We have had a lovely summer season, and we are so thankful for our wonderful family and interns that have put in so many hours of hard work to bring you the best produce possible. This seas1 read more »
Final Delivery Summer '20
We have come to the final week of our summer CSA season! We say good bye to some of our favorite summer crops (like corn). We also say goodbye to some fine young interns (3 leave and 2 stay for a couple more months). Goodbyes are never easy, but every ending signals a new beginning. Next week we wi1 read more »
A Full Day!
This morning dawned cool and crisp. I had one thing on my mind, the Smith family was coming to help us weed the blueberries! Earlier this summer we bartered tomatoes for a day of weeding. You see we seem to have a repeating challenge with our blueberry patch and by the end of the summer1 read more »
Mornings on the Farm
Early morning on the farm is one of our favorite times of day. Its cool, its quiet (although the birds sing so loudly in the morning). It is a common site to see our farm family perched on chairs scattered around the farm enjoying a few quiet moments before the hustle and bustle of the1 read more »
First Week of August (August 4, 2020)
August has arrived! Do you know what that means, besides that it's HOT? We are in the last month of the Spring/Summer CSA, which is hard to believe but true. Harder to believe is that fact that we are also in the last month of our 6 month internship! So, we are both rejoicing and mourni1 read more »
About the farm
Bountiful Blessings Farm was established in the fall of 1998 as an organic, u-pick strawberry farm. After five years of hard knocks (it’s hard to have all your “eggs” in one basket), we expanded to winter vegetable production in the fall of 2003, and then into year-round production in 2010. We now provide our customers with vegetables and berries (in season) 10 months of the year. Although all 5 of our children have given of their blood and sweat to make the farm into what it is today, Joshua (our second son), along with his wife Kelli, and our youngest son, Caleb are full time with us on the farm and together we make the core team. Beyond us we have a couple of "managers" (former interns who work with us) and 5-6 interns a season. It is our goal to bring you the most nutritious and beautiful produce we possibly can.
