Learned how to make a song with AI. This one is all for Cale. 😅

Greenhouse season is over but Farmer's Market season starts Saturday!

Come see us (and lots more great vendors) at Canton Farmer's Market this Saturday, May 30 in Brown Park.

We will have eggs and plants this week. Still a couple/few weeks out for our summer produce.

Time for my annual locally grown veggie PSA post.
TLDR - any tomatoes you are buying from a "Farm Store" now are not grown locally - they are shipped in.

It's summer - kids are out of school and everyone is ready for a tomato sandwich and juicy peaches. I see posts pop up on FB and Nextdoor often about where can I find "fresh from the garden", "locally grown" etc. right now.

If anyone (I don't care if it's a folding table in their front yard) is selling ripe tomatoes (other than maybe some cherry tomatoes) or peaches - they did not grow them.

Nobody around here grew them.

They probably bought them at Dekalb Farmer's Market and those are shipped in from maybe south GA, but also out of state.

Tomatoes won't be ready until late June (maybe earlier this year since it was a warm spring)
Peaches come from our neighbors in the north (Ellijay area) and won't be ready for a few weeks at least.

Late June - early July is when summer produce REALLY is locally grown in Canton, Ball Ground, Jasper, Woodstock, etc.

OK - off my soapbox now.

How are your plants growing?

If you got veggies or flowers from us, post a pic and let us see how they’re doing!

Final week for greenhouse hours! 🌱

Thursday 11 - 5 (celebrating Peyton's 5th Grade Awards that morning)
Friday + Saturday 10 - 5)

If you’ve been meaning to grab tomato plants, sweet peppers, or summer flowers… this is your reminder before we officially wrap things up for the season.

Our vinca and angelonia are blooming beautifully, love the summer heat, and are deer resistant — which honestly makes them overachievers around here.

After this week, we’ll still have some plants available at the Canton Farmers Market starting May 30 or by appointment at the farm.

We’d love to see y’all one more time before greenhouse season ends!

It’s not too late to grow tomatoes!

We have some in large buckets ready to go. They even have tomatoes starting.

They can stay in the bucket all summer. Come get your tomatoes! $25 each

Summer annuals are blooming!

Vinca and Angelonia will last all summer and are easy to care for.

Full sun. Both grow 12” - 14” tall and spread 12” - 18”.

Pink and white are blooming first. I’ll have purple ready soon!
