New Directions
The farm is finally evolving into the vision I had several years ago... Thanks to the passion and dedication of my entire staff, I do not have to be out "in the trenches" on a daily basis. This has allowed me the opportunity to put my energy into planning our next big farm venture. I always envisioned the farm as a kind of showcase of organic agriculture... a place where beauty and asthetically pleasing surroundings mingle with the day to day operations of the farm. With this goal always present in my mind and with the realization that it is possible we are ready to start the next and possibly the most exciting phase in the farm's evolution.
We are beginning to explore the possibility of building a large, rustic farm structure that would house our offices, an employee lounge, a commercial kitchen and a HACCP certified packing facility. The commercial kitchen will not only allow us to produce processed farm products, but will also help feed one of my greatest passions... cooking incredible food using local, organic ingrediants. Our weekly dinners will be served pond-side under a trellis of hardy kiwis; with the melodic tumbling of the waterfall cascading into the pond, the fragrance of thyme and rosemary, the chirping of frogs and an amazing meal should prove to be an excellent recipe for a memorable evening. We will also be exploring the possibility of using the farm and it's facilities as a venue for weddings, birthday parties and other related family gatherings. By next summer we should be ready to go!!! This is a very exciting time for me and we will keep you posted.
