What a beautiful sunrise I got to see last week, this was a day before we finally got a fair amount of rain, which we really needed. Now that we have some moisture in the ground we can get the dirt worked and ready for some more plantings of root crops and greens. We should start to see some cauliflower and broccoli soon, and romanesco is a few weeks out. Heirloom tomatoes have finally ripened up some and will be available in boxes, I am still amazed that they made it through the first two frosts, but I guess everyone gets lucky once in a while!

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.
