More about the Farm,

A hydro stacker system gives you the ability to grow 20 plants in one stacker. It is environmentally safe, uses less land, and less water than a traditional garden.

We also sell the stacker systems, growing medium and our special nutrient. Click here to view them.

Our farm consists of 21,840 strawberry plants and an extra 4400 spaces for the variety of vegetables that we grow as well. All of this sits on 2/3 of an acre and uses less than 1000 gallons of water a day. Each stacker receives one quart of nutrient 3 times per day. We grow all our plants in the stacker system with a mixture of perlite and vermiculite, no soil involved. This keeps the plants off the ground and out of the mud and dirt which keeps the plants and you Clean!

The farm is set up for u-pick. All items are sold by weight. We also provide a family environment for any age. You pick your fruits and vegetables in a basket that we provide. Because you picked it you know it's Fresh! It is also rewarding to know that you are providing your family with fresh, pesticide free food that it delicious and nutritious!

The strawberries we grow are pesticide and herbicide free and are available from Thanksgiving thru the end of May.

Also available are the following seasonal vegetables - squash, zucchini, cucumbers, sugar snap peas, cabbage, parsley, yellow wax beans, green beans, green peppers, red peppers, yellow peppers, orange peppers, spinach, collard greens and tomatoes.
