We sell everything locally within a 70 mile radius of the farm, thereby ensuring the freshness of our products; reducing environmental costs associated with transportation; generating stronger relationships and promoting accountability with our consumers; and supporting the local food economy.
We prefer to sell direct to consumers, thereby guaranteeing that our produce is being offered at the peak of its freshness; building closer relationships with the people who eat what we grow; and benefiting from feedback about what we can do better.
We select our wholesale customers carefully, thereby protecting the integrity of our product and forging long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships.
With these principles in mind, you can buy our food through our on-farm community supported agriculture program, at two local farmers’ markets and at a small number of fine restaurants and stores.
