We
choose our offerings with the idea we want them to be foods you
might know about but haven't really ever tasted. Not really.
Currently
we offer Red Raspberries, Shagbark Hickory Syrup, fresh and preserved
Culinary and Medicinal herbs and wild edibles foraged on our 10
acres.
Our
current focus is direct contact with the consumer at Farmer's
Markets and other venues. We sometimes work with local chefs and
are able to offer to them unique items not found elsewhere. Contact
us with questions or comments.
Our
primary crop is red raspberries and our berry season
extends from May to early July. You can read about our red raspberry
production here.
We
also harvest Shagbark hickory nuts and produce Shagbark hickory
syrup. You can read about our hickory production here.
I
have been growing herbs for 25 years in rural, urban and even
desert environments. At the farm we grow medicinal and wellness
herbs Native Americans have known about forever. We grow many
culinary herbs as well and we are continuing to expand our annual
production of stevia. You can read about our culinary herb and
stevia production here and our medicinal
herb production here
Our
10 acres is primarily wooded providing the perfect environment for
mushrooms. We offer as available, foraged morels, chanterelles,
turkey tails and waxcaps. You can read about our mushroom production
here.
Our
land is home to many sassafrass trees so we also produce traditionally
handmade file powder. And if the critters don't get them, we harvest
Ohio Pawpaws. The Pawpaw is recognized as Ohio's native fruit, also
known as Ohio banana, tastes like a banana! Along with pawpaw harvest,
we also harvest a small amount of Wild Allspice, or Spicebush berry.
You can read about all of our foraged and fresh cut production here.
Although
not certified organic, we follow natural, organic, sustainable farming
techniques that rely on natural methods. You can read about the
history of our farm here. And you can
find more information about our farm practices, land and water usage
here.
