Farm News

Summer is here it's sweltering and muggy - just what our tropical fruits need to thrive! We have avocados, juicy  passionfruit, white sapote, mamey,  jakfruit, canistel, mountain soursop (aka graveola), a few watermelons, and the first commercial crop of organic limes in the area since I can't even remember when. These are juicy and delicious, not at all like the imported semi-cooked (they have to be heat-treated to come in the country) immature dry ones from elsewhere. Get some! 

Our website is undergoing a facelift. We'll have the grand unveiling soon.

CSA News    We'll be opening enrollment soon for the upcoming winter season. As usual, renewing members will receive an early-bird renewal discount offer, and we'll have payment plans to help you budget.  Folks with SNAP/EBT will benefit from Fresh Access Bucks incentives, matching the cost of your veggie shares dollar for dollar.
Mail-order Avocados!  You'll be able to order soon. We'll send an email to everyone who's expressed an interest in mail-order avocados.
