Update





Welcome back to the blog -


This weekend we are participating in the Slow Food Farm tour on Sunday. Slow foods is an organization that educates people about how their food choices affect the rest of the world and is dedicated to supporting and celebrating the food traditions of the many cultures living in the United States. To find out more about this non-profit organization visit thier website at: www.slowfoodphoenix.org

Are these weeds crazy or what? We are working hard to keep them knocked down but they are fighters and keep coming back for more.

Okay - so we get asked "What's the best time to come to the farmstand when it is heavily stocked?" That's hard to answer because other than Sunday, we harvest most days and do our best to keep everything that is ready to go in the farm stand fresh and ready to buy. We know it is frustrating when you drive out and your favorites aren't there!

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 - we appreciate your loyalty and your business!
