The first planting of squash and cucs are doing great, the warmer temps really made them jump! We are starting to harvest some spring onions this week so look for them on the list. We will be planting tomatoes and peppers this week and hoping the last of the frosty mornings are in our past, wish us luck on that. We should start to see some root crops come back in the next couple weeks, including carrots that I know everyone has been missing.

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.
