News for a New Year

We are really looking forward to "growing" our operation in 2013.  Farmer Brent now has three years of growing experience under his belt and each season has brought more consistency and variety to the farm's offerings.  We started this whole operation with the goal of feeding ourselves and our neighbors and nothing has made us happier than helping supply the folks of Athens and Oconee with sustainably produced fruits and vegetables.  Our goals for this year center around making that produce easier and more convenient to get a hold of.  We would like to expand the days that the farmstand is open and also to provide delivery service to nearby households. We want to expand the number of participants in our CSA so that more people can experience eating seasonally.

These are big undertakings for a farm with only 1.5 full-time employees, but we are excited and ready for the challenge.  In order to get prepared for our 2013 goals, we will be taking a few weeks off from around mid-February to early March, which just so happens to coincide with the birth of our second child.  Our big CSA season, as well as the Athens Farmers Market season, will begin in earnest in April and we plan to hit the ground running.  Make sure to keep up with the weekly newsletter for information about joining the CSA, expanded farmstand hours and delivery service so we can include you wherever you'd like to fit in.  Thanks for your support over the last three growing seasons.  Looking forward to many, many more!
