We are finally picking a decent amount of cauliflower, seems like everything has been pushed back this year as far as timing goes. My guess is from the constant changes in weather because we have definitely been fluctuating from hot to cold and damp to dry more than a normal Fall/Winter season. Even citrus season was late this year, which I am being told was from the drought we had earlier in the year, it is always something in farming, ha! I hope to be adding some favorites to the list next week for Christmas boxes, crazy its almost here already!

The farm not only grows multiple varieties of over 30 types of vegetables, but in recent years has added fruit trees and flowers.
