Tasty and Healthy - July 5, 2012



Welcome to this week's newsletter. We hope your Independence Day celebrations were enjoyable and safe! It's a wonderful time of year - an opportunity to be creative in making memories and enjoying summertime activities. Creativity is more than artistic endeavors - try preparing new dishes, or making fun snacks for the family to enjoy. It's the little things which bring lasting, cherished memories.





Special Interest:

If interested in shelled black-eye peas, conk peas, or zipper peas, please phone the farm to place an order. Peas are in our standard two pound bag. $8 per bag.


As always, please feel free to phone the farm for special requests or special orders. We'll do everything we can to accommodate you. If you need something from the Farmers Market in Plant City, it is best to phone by Wednesday afternoon.
The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services visits to our farm to test our soil and plants. For more information about our farming techniques, and the testing we undergo, please click here.

Quote for this week:



“Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone 
else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living 
the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the 
noise of other’s opinion drowned your own inner 
voice. And most important, have the courage to 
follow your heart and intuition, they somehow 
already know what you truly want to 
become. Everything else is secondary.” 
– Steve Jobs



As always, thank you for your encouragement and support. Without you, we wouldn't be able to do what we love most - FARM!

Looking forward to seeing you,
