Another rainy Friday, but after a few days of sun we can take it. This spring and early summer’s weather has been challenging, first with the endless rain, cool temps, and soggy soil, and then the quick jump into heat and sun. After this week’s comparatively balanced weather of sun and rain, the plants are …
Welcome to week 2 of the CSA! I know it’s rainy now, but we’ll be firing up the pizza oven for tonight’s pick-up. Pizza will be from 4:00 – 7:00, slices by donation. Here’s this week’s harvest: Oregano : 1 bunch Mesclun Mix : 1/2 lb Braising Kale : 1 bunch Radishes : 1 bunch Hakurei …
Glorious sunshine! These last few days of sun and heat gave us much needed time to catch up on weeding and transplanting. We’re looking forward to the first CSA pick-up tonight at the farm. As we head into the season, a few quick reminders: Please bring your own bag or box to pack your share …
A quick note to tell you we’re so excited for our first pizza night of the season, this Friday!

Plant sale hours: Friday, 4:00-7:00 Saturday, …
Ahh, those few days of sun and heat were glorious, weren’t they? We worked hard and got a lot done under the sun: more plantings in the field, more beds prepped, and seedlings moved outside to harden off. This spring’s cool and wet weather have put a damper (pun intended) on growth, and our early …
We aspire to offer this land as a weekly resting place, where you come to get vegetables but also get relaxation as you pick flowers and take in the view; as you catch up with other members who’ve become friends; as you load up on bumper crops of zucchini and cucumbers; as you eat slices of wood-fired pizza on a warm summer night.
We’ve been firing up the pizza oven and getting lots of practice (and taste tests) in for this summer. Whether you pick up your share in Montpelier or at the farm, we hope you’ll join us for our twice monthly pizza nights this summer. When: 1st and 3rd Friday of the month, June – September, …
The sun is shining and the greenhouse doors are open. Even though there aren’t actual fruits in there yet, the tomato plants sure do smell like summer. I LOVE tomatoes. I love growing them and eating them and finding new varieties to try. But every year, Edge and I always come back to our favorites. …
Hello all! It’s raining now, but did you see next week’s forecast? Sun! And 70º on Monday! The seedlings are popping up and we’re already blooming inside 🙂 Speaking of blooming…I’m really excited about this year’s PYO flower plot. We’ve got a few new beautiful varieties that I know you’ll love. We’re expanding the space …
If you were a vegetable, what would you be? I’d be kale, specifically red russian kale, for it’s balance of tenderness and heartiness. Edge would be squash, because it’s a verb and a noun (and anyone who knows Edge knows he’s always on the move!) What about YOU? What’s your spirit vegetable? A root that …
