Hi all- Welcome to life on our farm, Cherry Rock Farms.  I thought this would be a good way to give you a glimpse into our lives as well as inform you about what yummy veggies we are offering in the market.  First a brief intro, we are a family of five (well six including grandpa David) that live on this 180 acre oasis.  My husband Marco and myself (Laura), decided to take on this adventure about a year and a half ago.  We uprooted our family (Carson 5, Griffin 3, and Clara 1) and headed west to start this new life.  We left everything and everyone we knew behind.  After the tears dried, we knew it was the right choice for us.  Oh what an adventure it has been so far, from floods to freezing temps, we are learning the hard knocks of farming!  We are loving this new lifestyle for our family.  We eat what we grow so it is important for us to have the best of the best for our family and yours.  We believe in getting back to the basics of farming so non-GMOs and no pesticides for us here.  We buy our seeds from small businesses.  Is certified organic in our future? We are moving that direction!  So exciting!

We opened this year on July 4th.  What a great day right?!? Celebrating our nation and just in time for cook-out season.  So far we have green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, peppers, zucchini, onions, beets, and flowers.  Our crops are growing more each minute so we will have more to add to the market soon.  Stay tuned for more posts...thanks for supporting us.  We love meeting you!
