Our pumpkins are coming along great, they are especially loving the cool nights and mornings as I am also! We got more broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower planted over the weekend, along with some more greens. I am hoping these cool nights speed up our fall crops, I know I am ready to be eating some roasted winter veg for sure. Now we just need some rain so I van get more root crops in the ground, the first plot of carrots have popped up nicely and I am planning to plant a bunch more. Stay tunned!

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.
