Pat's daughters and wife help out in the fields from planting to harvesting. Known for their luscious strawberries and unique and heirloom produce varieties, they run a CSA from February-November. FPLL sells it's fruit and veggies at local farmer's markets and local stores. We work with Happy Girl Kitchen and have jams made and tomatoes packaged. Community Supported Agriculture is the phrase coine
d for a unique opportunity for individuals to support small local farms in their area. The consumer subscribes to a farm “share” by enrolling in the program, and receiving the benefits of fresh, locally grown produce delivered weekly to a pick up site near your home. The obvious benefits are you are getting seasonal produce that is grown for you. By enrolling early, small farmers have the ability to know they have a market for the majority of their produce. The central coast has a wonderful climate that allows us to benefit from the seasonal changes. In spring there are the first of the strawberries and leafy greens, while in summer we get melons and tomatoes. You will never run out of options as the crops change with each season, bringing you the freshest offerings each week. The control of the harvest ensures that you are getting your box within 24 hours of harvest, making sure you get the most flavorful produce available, grown with care and attention to sustaining the life forces in our area.
