I hope everyone enjoyed their Independence Day weekend! We just started picking some of our figs last week, they are not in full swing yet but it wont be long! We have three varieties of trees that we pick from. In the picture the top left is LSU Purple, top right is LSU Gold, and the bottom left is Celeste. We hope to be adding these to your boxes soon but for this week we only have enough to sell as extras! Chef Austin also smoked some more bacon last week so that will be available to buy as well! Once again thank you all, stay safe, and Happy 4th of July!

About the farm
Covey Rise Farms is located in Husser, LA just north of New Orleans in central Tangipahoa Parish and is part of the Covey Rise Sportsman's Retreat. The farm started growing vegetables on 10 acres in 2009 and has expanded to over 60 acres at present. The farm not only grows multiple varieties of over 30 types of vegetables, but in recent years has added fruit trees and flowers. Our produce is enjoyed at various types of restaurants in New Orleans and surrounding areas, from the finest restaurants to quaint neighborhood cafes and everything in between and by our local produce/CSA members.
