Spring has sprung at the farm.

PLEASE READ

The daffodils are gone, and the Prunus (plums, cherries, peaches and more!) have started to dapple our pastures and gardens with delicate white and pink flowers. The warm weather and bursts of color have certainly lifted our spirits here at the farm. 

Thank you all for bearing with us as we modify the CSA program to fit the changing times. I know some of you were confused why there wasn't a a veggie share this past week. The veggie share is the 1st and 3rd full week of the month. This is usually every other week, but because of the way the calendar works there was a two week break. Sorry for this inconvenience! Next week it will resume as normal. Please double check your drop site as it may have changed.

Current drop sites:

  • CrossFit East Nashville, 2-4 pm, Tuesday: Our very nice new delivery driver, Mike, will be in the parking lot ready to load your order right into your trunk.
  • Demeter's Common, Lebanon, 10-3pm, Friday: Mallory will load your order right into your trunk.
  • Smith County Farmers Market, 10-11 am, Wednesday: I will load your order right into your trunk.
  • Home delivery, Tuesday and Friday, $5: Please make sure you are within our delivery route before choosing this option.
