A Tour Around

Since being up on the farm I've been exposed to fruits and vegetables that I've never heard of or at least seen before processing so I thought I should not tell, but show some of the things we grow here.

Yellow Jalapeno plant in one of the greenhouses


Rats attacking Bananas attacking Peanut starts...'tis a vicious cycle


Salvaged Bananas


Corn Shoots -- we take kernels of corn and sprout them and you are left with the purest, sweetest corn taste in a single thread


Micro Red Basil -- micro greens are the major output in the greenhouse


Pea Shoots -- same idea as the Corn, it's used in restaurants for Spring Rolls and other such light fare. Our Pea Shoot tables are set to kill some rats equipped with bait, cameras, cages, and slap traps.


My babies the African Basil


Okinawa Spinach -- It looks like a waxy, spiky weed but has a very soft, subtle flavor and has pretty purple under-leaves.


A Sea of Kale


Fuschia Plants -- we pick these edible flowers to be used as a wee little garnish on dessert plates
