Organic ginger grown on a Northern Nevada farm and it's ready now


At Custom Gardens Organic Farm in Silver Springs we’re growing NEVADA/Hawaiian Yellow Ginger!
For a new treat (if you have never experienced truly fresh young ginger root).

Now, we are ready to share our end of October limited dig.
We will be looking at another harvest of more mature ginger mid-December for Christmas.

If you buy it Tim will come -- produce still available at the Saturday California farmers market

If you don't know it is still possible to get fresh produce at the farmers market on California. Tim from Boughton Amber Oaks says he'll set up his booth for as long as we pop by and purchase his produce. Look for him close to the House of Bread.

Yes! Even in Northern Nevada it is possible to eat fresh local food in November

Until a couple of years ago I used to spend September getting ready to transition to the supermarket produce mind-set. Then I learned that it is possible to grow food even when it's cold outside. Now we get our fresh veggies from late season CSAs, and at least some of it from our own garden. Now you too can learn how to grow food during the cool season.

Eggs - fall/winter 2009

If you’re still in the market for eggs Rise and Shine Farms hens are still producing about 8 dozen each day and they expect to have eggs through the winter. Egg subscribers get the first shot at them but the remaining can be had by non-subscribers.

The cost is $4 per dozen and in-town deliveries happen on Tuesday and Friday, depending on your location. Contact Rise and Shine Farms for more information.
