Horn Farm Happenings – September 1
It’s hard to believe that it is September already! The days are a little cooler and we are putting fall crops in the ground. Our CSA share holders still have more than two months of vegetables coming their way. If you’re not a shareholder (or even if you are), you can buy produce grown at the Horn Farm at our farm stand Saturday mornings from 9 to noon. If you want an even bigger selection, order online by Thursday at noon to pick up Saturday morning.
The pawpaws are coming! We will be celebrating by holding a Pawpaw Festival at the Horn Farm on September 23 and 24.
