It has been chilly on the farm the last few days, but not as cold as it was in December of 2017! The picture is a plot of Tuscan Kale covered in the snow, I was actually on vacation when this happened and after seeing the pictures I didn't get much sleep! One thing we learned from that was the snow actually insulated the plants and kept them from getting burned by the 17 degree chill! I hope everyone has a good and safe Holiday with friends and family!

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.
