Farm Happenings for October 20-22, 2020

Hi friends,

Can you believe this is our final week of the fall season? It's hard to believe that we are already near the end of October! We are sending some of our famous homemade sourdough in our full shares this week and strawberry jam in the half shares. We hope this final sweet treat will leave a good taste in your mouth!

Please make plans to join us at the farm in Scottsville Ky on Saturday November 14th. This will be a great way to see where your food is grown, meet the farm family and hopefully pick some late fall veggies to take home! This is a very relaxed day and you can come and go at your leisure. We hope you will bring the whole family and make plans to attend!

Thank you for your support and encouragement this season. We were recently named the Best CSA/Produce in Nashville for the 5th straight year! What an honor and privilege to serve so many wonderful families! We are just over the moon and recognize that we truly have the Best CSA Members in middle Tennessee! Thank you! Thank you, Thank you!!

Nashville Scene

Farmhouse Nashville was born out of necessity. As a mother of four young children, I desired to feed my family nourishing food, healing food, local food and affordable food. I was disheartened at the prices of organic and was determined not to feed my family food that was from factory farms and laden with chemicals, pesticides and shipped in from thousands of miles away! Was that even possible? Seventeen years ago I joined a raw milk co-op in West Nashville. It was a step in the right direction. Our raw milk farmer was an Old Order Mennonite farmer. We were thrilled to have found a source for affordable, clean, healthy milk. Finding organic produce in this same community was a lot harder than I envisioned. It is a myth that Amish and Mennonite farmers are organic. Only two farmers in this community are growing organically. After months of searching, I discovered Golden Rule farm growing against the "grain" of the community. They were convinced and convicted that organic farming was the only way to grow nourishing, flavorful foods that would heal not only our bodies, but the land. Our partnership was only the beginning of this story. We started offering CSA shares to friends and family in Lebanon, then Mount Juliet and today, we serve hundreds of families in Middle Tennessee. Our commitment to nutrient-dense produce, pasture raised eggs and meats is undeniable. We work together to offer food that is not only healthier but affordable for families. We believe that foods grown organically are naturally best, but we also know that foods raised without the use of pesticides, chemicals and herbicides are healing the land. We use trace minerals and nutrients to enrich the soil. Organic is good, but nutrient-dense is better! Come share in the harvest and see and taste the difference of Fresh, Local, Real Food!
