We have some special treats for you this week:

All the special dates listed below may be seen on our Calendar (click the tab above).

Thursday - (Thanksgiving Day), the Farm will close at Noon.

Friday - (Black Friday), Rolo will be out on Hwy 19 7AM - 3PM with the other vendors for the Hernando County Farmers Market. Stop by to donate dry goods to the food bank and do some shopping for gifts for the special people in your life. So while you are out and about grabbing deals that day, and buying holiday gifts, be sure to stop by for some healthy veggies to fix for dinner, and replace the energy which you'll need on Saturday to continue shopping or visiting with family and friends. If you would like any of the pesticide-free greens, please phone to reserve them, so that we know to bring them with us.

Friday - Joann will continue cutting Pesticide-free greens (turnips, collards and mustards).

Saturday - Rolo and Joann will be at the Hernando County Farmers Market on Hwy 19 with nearly 80 other vendors! Come browse, shop, and visit with your neighbors - it's an all 'round enjoyable time. You'll also be supporting local businesses by visiting their booths. If you would like any of the pesticide-free greens, please phone to reserve them, so that we know to bring them with us.

Saturday - Gran'ma Angie and Nana Phyllis will be at the Produce Barn until 6PM. Fresh Cut Pesticide-free Greens will be eagerly awaiting you in their little wading pool.

Because we are growing a large variety of Greens this winter, we will be harvesting Greens in a rotational manner. We will do our best to keep you informed of which Greens are being harvested, but if you need special orders, please phone the farm. We will do everything possible to accommodate your requests when special orders are made. 

This week's greens include:

• Turnips with Greens ($2.25)
• Mustards  ($4.00)
