You can now find our Certified Organic Vegetable & Herb Plants at Whole Foods in OKC and Tulsa! All are in organic peat pots, as well. The herbs make a great additon to your vegetable garden or planted in a pot on your patio for making special, gourmet meals. The vegetable plants are varieties that we use in our own garden for growing for farmers’ markets and for our Veggie Club, so you can be assured that they will do well in our Oklahoma climate. They are out front of the store, so take some home when you’re there!
What a crazy Spring this has been! Because of the prolonged cold weather, we have been delayed getting our transplants in the ground. That will make the Veggie Club start a little later than planned. We’re now looking at the first week in May to get started. That gives you time to tell your friends about our fresh, local, Certified Organic Vegetables. Folks are getting wise about the dangerous chemicals in the food chain today and are looking for alternatives. Please help them and us by getting the word out about our healthy veggies; your friends will appreciate it!

As of today we’re officially Certified Organic with ODAFF (Oklahoma Dept. of Agriculture, Food & Forestry). It’s taken 3 years to get to this point, so we are REALLY HAPPY!! We’ve always been chemical-free, but wanted to have our certification, just the same. We hope this gives our customers added confidence in what they receive, as well as in our farming practices. You can know that ALL our vegetables and herbs that we bring to the Farmers’ Market, Veggie Club and Oklahoma Food Co-op is organically certified. You can see a copy of our certificate by clicking on the “Organic Certification” page to your right.
We’ve been busy on the farm planting Potatoes, Onions and Sweet Potatoes. The Greenhouse is full of Vegetable and Herb seedlings and new potted flowers, also. It’s time to sign up for the Spring Veggie Club, getting underway next month. We hope to have another great group of folks this year who are interested in eating healthy, local, organic vegetables straight from the farm! Check out the “AA Veggie Club” Page on the right for furthur info.

This is probably our busiest time of the year! Our office is packed with vegetable seed, our greenhouse is getting loaded with trays of seedlings, and we’re making plans for our Spring Veggie Club. At the same time, we’re walking through snow and cold wind, just hoping that Spring gets here soon! Are you thinking about fresh vegetables yet? Are you wanting to eat healthier this year? We would love to help!
Our Spring Veggie Club will be starting sometime in April (depending on weather & crop production) and will be running for 8 weeks, instead of the 20 week Spring/Summer club we have had in the past. A Summer and Fall Club will follow, each approximately 8 weeks long, also. Hopefully that will make it a little easier for everyone. We have not raised our box fee for the last two years ($25), but because of the high cost of fuel and vehicle upkeep, we are having to add an additional $5 shipping & handling fee to the weekly box cost. That will make the subtotal $30, plus tax (whatever that is for your area). Instead of weekly payments, we are going to switch to monthly payments. We will still take cash or checks, and I am hoping to add a Paypal button to this blog so payments can be made online, too, if desired.

Last year’s first Spring box
Our Spring boxes usually consists of fresh salad greens and cool weather root crops, such as carrots, beets, turnips, onions, etc.. If your family enjoys salads, you will really enjoy the Spring box. The photo at left shows our first Spring box from last year. You can click on it to get a larger view. Check out our “VEGGIE CLUB” page for more information and/or to sign up. Deposits are being collected at this time.

Haven’t had much time to post since starting the Veggie Clubs and Farmer’s Market. Everyone is wanting fresh vegetables after the winter lull. We were hit by hail and a “gully-washer” of rain Saturday night, which will set some of our crops back a bit. The rain uncovered our potato plants in spots, so we were forced to gather some a little early. It’s hard to beat those fresh-tasting ‘taters in butter & parsley, or in a good gravy with our fresh carrots, too!
This is GREENS SEASON, so enjoy them while they’re here. Once really hot weather comes, we won’t have them again till the Fall season. That’s the rhythm and beauty of eating seasonal. You cook and enjoy the things that are coming in during a given season, learn to be creative in preparing them in lots of different ways, and then it’s over, and something new comes in to take its place, and you start all over learning how to be creative with it. We still have room in our Veggie Clubs, and we are at the Lawton Farmers Market (off Sheridan Rd. at the County Fairgrounds) every Saturday morning. Come enjoy the Spring harvest!
