We're back!


I don’t need to tell you that it has been a rough winter for vegetable farmers here in Calhoun County, but we are back in the produce business with some very nice lettuce varieties, some early spring kale, and a few heads of small but tasty broccoli.

Soil temperatures are still quite cool for this time of year and that means a slower than normal start for the warm season veggies, but we have a good variety of things in the ground and are holding lots of transplants in the propagation house until the soil is a consistent 62 degrees.

I don’t have them listed on the store site, but I have lots of tomato plants ready to go, so if you want to “grow your own” I will have them available when you pick up your orders. We have some great heirloom varieties including the local favorite “Hillbilly.” We also have Mr. Stripey, Brandywine, Rutgers, Yellow Jubilee, Old German, Amish Paste and a few Jersey Giants. The plants are in great condition and we are only asking $4 for a large six-pack.

We hope to see you soon, and remember that we are also at the Calhoun County Farmer’s Market at the Upper West Fork Park on Wednesdays from 9 to 1.

Blessings,
The Gregory’s
