In the Kitchen:
Okay so this isn't really a recipe but I wanted to share it anyway. We had some goat cheese - it's something we don't really have around the house but this week we had some. It seemed a little strong on a cracker so I put a little bit on a radish and.....YUM! It's the perfect little appetizer anytime! We can supply the radishes but you need to come up with the goat cheese.


Farm Stand Info:
The farmstand is self-serve and open dawn to dusk. We make an effort to stock the stand most every morning so that you will have the freshest veggies and herbs. We round all our prices down to the nearest quarter to make things easier for you (and us) as we do not make change. Checks are accepted.



Thank you for supporting our farm.
