August 19-25, 2019 This past week scientists from around the country descended on Louisville for the Ecological Society of America Annual Meeting, and we were fortunate to host a small farm tour for those attending who were interested in the farming aspect of ecology. Ecologically speaking, our farm is considered a low-input system of food […]
August 12-18, 2019 By one definition, farmers are in the transporting business. We move soil around to prepare the fields for the little seeds we sow. Vans, wagons, trailers, trucks, and tractors go hither and yon on a daily basis to harvest and tend to the crops. We haul hay and feed and then haul […]
August 5-11, 2019 One reward we receive for our work is the enthusiastic feedback from our customers at the farmer’s market. We see and hear how excited they are to have access to such beautiful foods to prepare as they share stories with us about how wonderful the previous week’s purchases pleased their palates. Interest […]
July 29- August 4, 2019 Corn is biologically tricky to grow and make look good. Corn is in thousands of foods, drinks, cosmetics, and plastics. Corn is the most commonly used grain for beef, dairy, pork, and poultry. Sweet corn is not the same as cow corn. Genetic modification of corn is the norm, not […]
July 22-28, 2019 In our quest to bring you responsibly grown food, we have access to technologies our ancestors could not even imagine.

September 25 – 28, 2017 We know you have been eating well since your shares have been bountiful with wholesome organic food. The very nature of the CSA shareholder program is to pass along more when there is more (tomatoes, anyone?), and less when there is less. The weather cooperated for the most part this […]
September 18 – 21, 2017 Some people say that farmers are eternal optimists as they are often heard to say, “there is always next year!” There is probably some truth to that, and when you grow a crop that takes all season to mature, you only get one shot a year to get it right. […]
September 11 – 14, 2017 I read an article discussing how the vast US agricultural industrial complex is leaving us malnourished while trying to provide affordable food to the rest of the world. It states that the majority of US eaters are consuming way too many empty calories, synthetic food additives, pesticide residues, bad fats, […]
September 4 – 7, 2017 The vegetables in your share today got to you via a carefully choreographed series of planning, planting, cultivating, harvesting and packing activities. The person at the start of all of that is John Bell. John lives on the farm with his wife, Melissa, and their three children. The son of […]
August 28 – 31, 2017 We have used the phrase “walk like you mean it” more than a few times around here over the years with each other, when one of us is not showing enough hustle, or when someone is attending to an urgent situation. We also adopted an “eat like you mean it” […]
