Many people think that the only benefit they get by eating fresh fruits and vegetables, is weight loss. I have seen customers reduce or eliminate the need for medications, by eating the fruits and vegetables that are specifically targeted to their ailments. The natural vitimins, nutrients, and antioxidants in fresh produce is proven to help, and sometimes reverse many issues people take medication for. Medication is expensive, and has many scary side effects. Check into which fruits and vegetables can help lower sugar and cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation, help with digestion, and boost your brain, besides promoting weight loss. So..... eat your fresh fruit and veggies, they are beneficial in so many ways!!

1996, my first stand in the Village of Holley. Check out the old wooden cultivator in the front corner. That was my grandfather's, and my daughter still uses it on the farm!!

Buh-bye 2020!! Gone, but not soon forgotten. Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year!!

Merry Christmas!!

Happy Winter Solstice!! We will also get a bonus this year, the Christmas star will be visable tonight!! This is an exciting time for farmers, we start gaining daylight, and looking towards the new season. It's a renewal of sorts, moving on from the previous season and heading into the next!! It is an exciting time, planning our planting, and gearing up for 2021!! Days getting longer, what's not to like about that?

I'm really missing fresh produce!! I went to the store for a tomato, and left highly disappointed. On the way out I spied some sweet onions.....$1.99 a lb. Yikes. Don't despair....we will be open in 4 months!! Until then eat healthy, and get ready for a whole new season of fresh, tasty produce!! We are now ordering our seed and plants to get ready for the 2021 season, and as always, will have lots of specialty crops, you can't find in the grocery store. Please shop local, and support small businesses, we are the backbone of the economy, and we need you!!

Shorter days, and snow covered branches....yeah, it's December!

Happy Thanksgiving!!
