Our ranch is located 2 miles southwest (behind) of Bordertown, about 18 miles north of Reno. We grow several different varieties of tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, corn, lettuce, spinach and this year we grew fabulous watermelons! We use natural gardening methods and incorporate our homegrown compost into each of our gardens. We have just invested in a six row seeder and this year will be putting in an even larger garden than ever before! This means more quantity and more selection for you. If you have any specific crops you'd like us to try, please let us know and we'd certainly consider it in our crop rotation plan.

We also grow and sell orchard grass.

Our historic ranch is also a perfect location for outdoor events. (more...)
