Jus-Lin Farms

By: Kelly Hills (Dec 19, 2009)
Picked Jus-Lin Farms at somewhat random at the beginning of the year, and they still had shares available. The *best* random decision I have ever made! Fred impressed me from the get-go with his prompt replies via email, and his constant updates over conditions on the farm; unlike other CSAs, I never had to wonder what was going on.

Once the shares started delivery, I delighted in learning what real food looks like and tastes like. Broccoli is a flower! And in Fred's hands, that broccoli is a rich, green and purple, nutty flavour that will knock your socks off. Chemically untreated garlic,, onions that were sweet, juicy, and fresh, an amazing variety of greens, and a constantly rotating crop made Wednesdays my favourite and most anticipated date of the week.

Visiting the farm was equally fun, with the chance to tour the property, meet the animals, and see the operation from start to finish.

The obvious thought, care, and attention to detail placed into the farm and our shares shone through the entire season, and it was wonderful to be a part of. It doesn't get much more farm to table than this.
