We are currently under construction at the stand. We are adding on to our commercial kitchen so that we can prepare more homemade items from our produce. Our greenhouse plants are all enjoying the sunshine as the days are getting longer. We will unofficially open the greenhouse to the public the weekend after Easter. We plan on officially opening the farm stand and greenhouse on the first of May! Our spring hours will be 8 am to 6 pm until school lets out for the summer.
