Farm Fresh Produce

Your local farm stand in Aurora. Picked each morning through the summer, grown in our own gardens or brought in from farmers down the road.

Fresh from our gardens

Picked this morning, on the stand today

Each year we plant over 600 tomato plants, acres of sweet corn, and gardens of cucumbers, beans, zucchini, and eggplant. We are not certified organic, but we use as many chemical-free techniques as we can, and we pick each garden every morning, sometimes again at night.

As good as a garden in your backyard

Without the back-breaking work, or worrying whether powdery mildew will get your cucumbers first.

Whatever we do not grow ourselves, we bring in from other local farmers. Stop in often; we pick as it ripens and the stand changes by the day.
