Warmer weather has definitely been welcomed by everything in the fields. Just some sunshine and dryer weather has been really nice! We got strawberries uncovered and let the sun hit them and picked a decent amount, although they are flying out the cooler as quick as they come in. Planted some more potatoes and we should be planting some sunflowers as soon as the forecast looks a lil warmer for a good stretch. Hope everyone has a great weekend and Valentines Day.

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.
