You may have noticed a few changes at the farm. Unfortunately, the honor box in the farmstand has been broken into three times in the past week. We are in the process of changing the farmstand hours so that someone can be around when the stand is open. If the honor box is open and unlocked please do not leave money in it - if you really need the veggies you can take them and then pay us the next time you come.
Our tentative hours are set at 10 AM till 6 PM daily, closed Monday. We apologize for the recent inconsistencies in hours and veggies.
If you've been by recently you have noticed the new sign for Greene Nursery on our property. Derick Greene, the owner, is leasing the corner of our property to retail his plants and trees. His nursery is located just up the street from us on Rattlesnake Rd. He should be open for business any day now. If your looking for a landscape plant check out Greene Nursery.
Many have asked when the tomatoes will be ready. The plants are about thigh high and are sporting marble size toms. You can probably expect a few full size ones by mid May.

Farm Stand Info:
The farmstand is self-serve and open from 10 AM until 6 PM daily, closed Monday. 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 your patience and for your continued support of our farm stand.Have a great week!
