Growings On 8/16/21
It's a bit of an odd weekend - for starters, there's no farmers market this Saturday. Those of you who pick up at Dunwoody, we'll be adding you to our delivery route on Sunday evening, no charge. And because there's no market on Saturday, I'm able to join my boyfriend at his cousin's wedding! This1 read more »

I've mentioned before how we were planning to sell vouchers to pick strawberries as part of our plan to keep everyone housed and paid through the winter. Well, they're ready!

EAV pickup will be moving to the farm, effective THIS SUNDAY. Our address is 500 Springside Dr SE, Atlanta, GA 30354. Please come pick up your share on the farm and see our new space!

I don't mention it often here, but I manage the Dunwoody Farmers Market on Saturdays. I'm mentioning it now, because the market this Saturday has the potential to reach a milestone I didn't think would happen this soon - we're on track to have 50 booths! It's an artisan market, which is something I1 read more »

A huge thank you to everyone who reached out with contacts to Atlanta Habitat for Humanity! Apparently my message reached the COO, Director of Housing (multiple times), and was sent to Habitat International and forwarded back to Atlanta! Didn't quite mean to start a five alarm fire... But, we1 read more »

Happy Solstice!
I'm back in Atlanta, and once again wrestling with reality - finding a ladder or scaffold that can reach to the top of the greenhouse to install the tracks for the plastic, figuring out why the germination on our last batch of seeds was so bad, finding wholesale buyers for pro1 read more »
About the farm
I farm because I believe that feeding someone is the most fundamental way to make an impact in the world. We are what we eat, and I do my best to make sure that I’m growing nutrient rich food that tastes amazing and powers my people to live their best lives.
