I hope you are all doing well! We are making a delivery this Thursday, July 8th. You will have until tomorrow night at 11:59 pm to customize your order or skip this week. This week we have a nice crop of summer kale. It is quite challenging and fun to try to grow different crops year round. And the same crops will taste different depending on the season. In cool weather, for instance, carrots will be sweet, in cold weather super sweet, and in warm weather they will have a hint of spice. To grow things like lettuce during the summer we have to germinate them in our walk-in-cooler and use special, heat resistant varieties. But it is so special to be able to eat our own fresh vegetables year round! We hope you enjoy it too.

About the farm
Rora Valley Farms is located in beautiful rural Coosa County, Alabama and is owned and operated by the Sanders Family and was established in 2009. Currently my wife Dorothy and I (Noah) oversee the vegetable and bakery operations while my cousin Luke Sanders and his wife Kristin oversee the meat and egg production. Our kids help out as well! Here at Rora Valley Farms we strive to produce real food. Many industrial foods today put on a good show, but fail to provide our bodies with the nutrients we need to function properly. When God designed our bodies, He also designed amazing foods to fuel them. But most industrial foods have strayed from that original design, and we have reaped the consequences. Through building healthy, living soil and utilizing natural systems of production and management we strive to harvest food that feeds our bodies, as well as our taste buds.
