Green garlic is finally here! The warmer weather we had really made it jump. Looking like we are gonna have a frost over the weekend, hopefully the last one. We have more spring transplants that are frost sensitive in the barn and ready to go in the ground. We will have to cover up some squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes that are already in the ground so cross your fingers with us! We plan to be in full planting mode as soon as the weather forecast shows higher temps.

About the farm
Covey Rise Farms is located in Husser, LA just north of New Orleans in central Tangipahoa Parish and is part of the Covey Rise Sportsman's Retreat. The farm started growing vegetables on 10 acres in 2009 and has expanded to over 60 acres at present. The farm not only grows multiple varieties of over 30 types of vegetables, but in recent years has added fruit trees and flowers. Our produce is enjoyed at various types of restaurants in New Orleans and surrounding areas, from the finest restaurants to quaint neighborhood cafes and everything in between and by our local produce/CSA members.
