Opening Bell: Beef, Walnuts, Plants, Honey!


Good afternoon!

A few Tomato plants will be going in the ground on Wednesday morning at Cedar Rock Ridge. If all goes right, 80 days later we’ll have some delicious Cherokee Purple tomatoes! If you’ve never had a garden before, why not start with just one tomato plant in a pot? If you need a little help getting started, talk to me on Friday. You’re welcome to come out to Cedar Rock Ridge and pick out a large pot, fill it with compost, and put a tomato plant in it, along with a bamboo stake to tie it up when it gets larger.

This is also the time of year to be dividing perennial plants. We now have Scarlet Bee balm, Korean hyssop, purple coneflower and other flowering plants available. These are great for attracting pollinators, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Thanks to our wonderful Growers who worked hard all winter to provide us with fresh produce! And Strack Farm will be back online in just a couple of weeks, with lots of early spring goodies.

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. Over 575 items available now!

Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!

And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)

The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping:

Opening Bell: Pork, Pecans, Beef, Honey!


Good afternoon!
Another sure sign of spring is when the chickens start laying more eggs. Egg production is linked to length of daylight. This gives the hens a chance to rest during winter time. They still produce eggs, just not every day. I’ve heard from several growers that egg production is on the rise.

We’ve got some Tomato Plants available already: Blueberry Cherry Tomato and Cherokee Purple. Also some Japanese Eggplant Plants. Limited quantities, so get yours now and nurture them a few weeks until you plant them outside.

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. Over 600 items available now!

We got 12 1/2 inches of rain here at Cedar Rock Ridge since Wednesday! I’m sure some of our Growers have standing water in the fields. Let’s hope it drains quickly so our food can get back to growing!
