We have deer visiting the farm! Many of you know that when the sales shed door is closed we have not harvested. However we’ve been having deer visitors most nights and not only do they munch on the veggies in the field but also think we’ve put out a buffet on the sales table. So if the door is completely closed we have not harvested, but if it’s only closed enough to prevent deer from coming in, feel free to open the door and help yourself.
We also have many new visitors to our website and facebook page. For those of you who have not been out to the farm yet to buy veggies, we want to invite you to come on out. Our farm is at 61915 Pettigrew Road. Enter the farm at our mailbox on the north end of the property. Come down the driveway to the house. There is ample parking at the sales shed. We have self-service sales, there is a large dry erase board listing the vegetables with their prices. Choose your vegetable, then record your purchases in the spiral notebook in the green box. Put the notebook and money in the green back in the green box. There is usually no more than $1.50 in change. We are happy to accept checks. If you would like help please come to the house or give a honk of your horn(don’t worry we don’t consider a horn honk impolite just a means of communication).
We will have 4 to 5 varieties of potatoes, onions, garlic, 3 varieties of kale, swiss chard , beets and eggs most always available until Thanksgiving. Fall lettuce mix, tomatoes, tomatillos, peppers, cabbages, cauliflower are also currently available. If you would like to buy in quantities that are not packed please come get us.
