So excited to finally be doing what I love – playing with dirt and animals, and making art at my own home!
I have a farm stand out front several days a week, and you can place orders online for pickup or local delivery. Typically you will see eggs, microgreens, baked goods, and whatever random thing I happen to be working on out there, come check it out.
My goal is to be a “producer” and provide a healthy, local alternative to some of the common (and uncommon) foods that we eat. It’s important to have a healthy and balanced diet, and it’s important to be a positive impact at home and in the community. I offer good food at a fair price, and I want to get to know (and be of service to) those nearby in this awesome town.
AND these microgreens are incredible! The method I use for them is beautiful and simple, taught to me by my dear friend Sean Rowe from Lima, OH. (RIP) The process will probably even continue to adapt as I learn more lossless and efficient methods. I think it can be a little off-putting buying greens that have already been cut and are in some kind of container or bag with a paper towel, not knowing where they had been or what touched them. So we (Sean and I) talked about a way to decrease the number of “touches” to the mature greens before they reach the customer. So the only time we touch a green after planting now, is if there is a random hull that needs to be plucked off! What makes this process unique: – the detail that goes into starting the seeds evenly in their own container – allowing the customer to choose their desired grow stage (beginning to end) – a setup that lets the customer cut the greens themselves
I have studied and tested this process (among others) and am finally ready to accept commercial customers for a selection of 5-7 different microgreens and will be offering some unique herbs and vegetables as we grow. Looking to connect with chefs and restaurant owners, and you will see me at the local Farmer’s Markets and festivals.
