Thanks for visiting us last week, here on the blog, and at our various locations. We have a new location!
But first... take a look at these gorgeous bok choy plants!
They are delicious, too! Less bitter than collards, and a more tender texture, Bok Choy is an easy way of introducing Greens into your meals. We combined some field peas when cooking them, and then added sliced yellow squash at the last minute! YUM!

Collards are in!
We are delighted to offer these terrific greens to you throughout the holiday season. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of your holiday meal traditions with our flavorful, versatile greens! This year we've added many more varieties of greens, too! Please phone ahead to reserve greens when purchasing at one of our satellite locations. Because greens are so forgiving, they are easily frozen for future use. Soups and stews with greens added as one of the ingredients can easily be frozen and used later as needed.
All the special dates for December may be seen on our Calendar (click the tab above).
Monday - we will be at the Cloverleaf location. 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 - Rolo will be at the Spring Hill location. If you would like any of the pesticide-free greens, please phone to reserve them, so that we know to bring them with him.
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.
Sunday - Rolo will be at the Hernando County Fair Grounds Flea Market from 8AM - 2PM. This is located in south Brooksville on the east side of Broad Street/Highway 41. We are searching for a new Brooksville location to meet our neighbors' needs. Let us know what you think about this location. It should be a fun place to shop and spend the morning since we are joining many other vendors.

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.
Where else can you phone to have freshly harvested produce made available?
