Green Akeys Family Farm

A friend and I split a CSA share this past year -- and absolutely loved it. Going to get the food every Friday was the perfect way to unwind after a long week. The tension just fell away as I rode down the long lane and then picked out perfect zucchini, amazing heirloom tomatoes, and many other vegetables. I loved knowing where my food came from -- and tried many new recipes throughout the season. Volunteering was fun too, and a great way to learn more about organic farming.

The property is beautiful, the food was amazing, and Annette and Mike are the nicest people you could hope to meet. We got lots of fantastic produce throughout the season, traded recipes and ideas, and even got to help milk a goat. I've been making the most amazing soups out of the butternut squash and pumpkins we got, and we're still eating the last of the late-season radishes and cabbage!

One of the best parts was a flower cutting garden Annette planted. I'd pick a small bouquet of flowers every week and enjoy the beautiful blooms all week long! They also have a big herb garden, which kept us happily supplied with basil, cilantro and other herbs. The car smelled so good on the way home!

Definitely recommend joining the CSA!
