Tasty and Healthy - February 28, 2013

Happy Last Day of February and Our best wishes for an enjoyable week...

We are readying the farm equipment and fields to change from our Winter crop season to the Spring plantings. To see which Winter Crops are currently being harvested on Beasley Farm, please see the highlighted areas below. For Kale or Swiss Chard, please phone the farm. We will cut it especially for you to keep it at its freshest.

Collards (shown below) belong to the Cruciferous Family. They are extremely healthful and versatile, full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Please click here for information about Greens.


Because Greens are extremely perishable, we ask our customers to special order them if picking up at a satellite location. At the farm, we keep them in children's swimming pools of water.

Currently planted on the farm, but not yet ready for harvest:
  • More Kale in about a week
  • More Swiss Chard in about a week
  • Broccoli
  • Spinach
  • Beets
If interested in fresh-frozen SHELLED black-eye 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 regularly to test our soil and plants. For more information about our farming techniques, 
and the testing we undergo, please click here

Quotes for this week:

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
- Buddha -

Smile at life, even when life has not smiled at you first.
Be the first one to initiate goodness, and you'll be the
first one to benefit from that goodness.
Ralph Marston

Tasty and Healthy - February 21, 2013


Our best wishes for an enjoyable week...

At the end of harvest, we pull up the watering lines, till under the left over "green" to revitalize our soil, let the soil rest, and then work the soil some more, letting the air in, discing, and finally creating new rows and laying the water lines back down. Then the planting begins.


To see which Winter Crops are currently being harvested on Beasley Farm, please see the highlighted areas below. For Kale or Swiss Chard, please phone the farm. We will cut it especially for you to keep it at its freshest.

How about freezing our pesticide-free greens while they are in season so they can be enjoyed all year long? See our web page for more information on how to freeze greens.

Quote for this week:


Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable 

spark in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, 
the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero 
in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the 
life you deserved and have never been able to reach. 
The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real,
 it is possible .. it's yours.
~ Ayn Rand
