Mini-Egg & Veggie Farm

Description

Plot = 20’Ft X 20’Ft = 400 SQ.FT.
Your Mini-Farm Will Start From Scratch and according to your host farm’s growing season and mini-farm type, i.e., bed prep, seeding/transplanting, growing period.

Harvests & CSA Delivery or other special type mini-farm processing will begin when any crop is harvestable.
Monthly Plot Report will show you pictures and/or video of your plot’s progress.

You will also be invited for quarterly picnic at your host farm and can volunteer weekly to oversee your plot and glean the healthful benefits of exercise and fresh county air!

We are not responsible for any delays or losses due to weather or other acts of nature or God. As your plot and your host farm ages, they will become more resilient and stored produce more abundant to offset losses and the non-growing seasons/phases.

Whether because of Avian Flu (Bird Flu), transportation and supply chain issues, or simply price gouging, you are well aware of what can happen at anytime with your favorite breakfast and food prep ingredient – eggs.

We start your plot with the basic vegetable bed prep and start seeding it with your first group of vegetables (according to season). Selections vary with this subscription and with location but can include, hardy fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, zucchini, beans, strawberries, apples, peaches, herbs like oregano, rosemary, mint, parsley, and cilantro. If you have any medical conditions that can benefit from natural remedies and particular focused nutrition, check out our health-based mini-farm options.

In addition to the veggie and fruit produce space, we reserve a section of your plot to house your chicken workers who will produce eggs for your CSA weekly delivery box. If and when your local grocery store does not have any eggs due to some emergency, your CSA Box will include the farm-fresh eggs that were laid by the chickens housed on your plot. This is the benefit of owning your own farm – even just a mini-farm.

Gardening is a great way to use exercise into daily life and potentially improve your diet too. Exercise is one of the main benefits of gardening. Did you know to clear land for 30 minutes burns around 200 calories while weeding for 30 minutes burns about 182 calories, and planting bulbs or seeds for half an hour burns about 162 calories? Your subscription includes access to our farm for volunteer gardening on a weekly basis and a quarterly picnic for your family here on the farm.

Select whole grains and whole-grain products over processed, bleached, and enriched carbs. Fresh fruit’s better for you than dried, canned, frozen, or juiced as it retains its fiber and nutritional value.
