Hi Friends! We managed to avoid a killing frost on the farm this week and we still have cherry and heirloom tomatoes, peppers, and a few surprise cucumbers available this week, in addition to a few varieties of winter squash and lots of greens. This is the last week of shares at the Brighton Market (honeoye falls members the last pick up is next week) but we'll continue to be at the market until just before thanksgiving with greens, storage crops, and hopefully some handmade gifts if we can make some time for woodworking in the next few weeks!

Farm Happenings for October 7, 2022

About the farm
Rainwater Farms is run by Emma Rainwater & Naomi Salama with our daughter Norah. Emma fell in love with farming as community service while in Americorps. Naomi is fascinated with intentional ecology and stewardship of the land. We married at a farmer’s market in 2015, and started Rainwater Farms in 2017.
At Rainwater Farms we make use of sustainable practices, permaculture theory, and elbow grease to intensively manage 1.5 acres of vegetables, fruit trees, and a small flock of laying hens for eggs. We farm with intention and respect for the ecosystems our farm interacts with, both above and below ground.
