Farm Happenings at Rise N Shine Farm
Farm Happenings for August 1st Week
Laura helps bring in the flower harvest every week. All of us here at Rise 'N Shine are well acclimated to the heat and humidity as we bring in the harvest and prepare for the next crops.
As we enter the dog days of summer, we accept the heat as truth and occasionally lift our noses to the ai1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 25th Week
We get to see some amazing sunrises on the farm with our big open spaces. It is truly a beautiful planet we live with and on.
Sadly, we will not have any sweet corn this year. I'm still not sure what happened to cause that crop to fail. You win some and you lose some.&1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 18th Week
Meet our newest addition to the egg operation, Biscuit! She's our 9 week old Great Pyrenees Guard Dog in Training. Annie will teach her right (which is basically bark at and chase anything that moves that is not a chicken or farm crew).
We dug our potatoes up and have a nice crop1 read more »
Farm Happenings for July 11th Week
My daughters, Camille and Laine, have been helping on the farm some this past year. Here they are with the monotonous task of cleaning onions. These are later storage onions that we will give out after the Vidalias are done. My girls are really great workers. They know how t1 read more »

The melons are in! We have Sugar Baby, honey dew, cantaloupe, canary and honey blonde. There will be a break in bean harvest as the deer pretty much destroyed the next 2 crops. BUT, we are working hard to get that field closed up with our very hot electric fence. Hopefully,1 read more »
Farm Happening for June 27th Week
The garlic is in! It's been curing over a week now so it's ready to start sending out. We have a really nice crop of German White garlic. It is a hardneck variety that is tasty and easier to peel than what you get in the store generally.

Farm Happenings for the week of June 13th
The early tomatoes are finally starting to come in! Get ready for some good summer eating with the tomatoes, beans, squash, onions and more. I'm taking some time off with my family the week of the 13th. If you need anything be sure to email us at info@risenshineorganicfarm.com&nbs1 read more »
Farm Happening for June 6th Week
Here's a site often seen in the summer on the farm: Jose on the little bitty killing thousands of weeds. Can you see the difference? It's very easy to lose an entire crop to weeds if you don't stay on top of it. Since we are certified organic there are no sprays we can use t1 read more »
