Marty Heller and Michelle Ferrarese are both passionate advocates for a healthy, strong, local food system, one which includes fresh, whole foods produced with organic/sustainable agricultural practices, direct marketing, and eaters who are personally acquainted with farms and farmers. We love food – growing it, preserving it, preparing it, and sharing it with others. And talking about it…. and writing about it… reading about it…. you could say we’re obsessed with really good food! Among other things, we have both run successful CSA farms in the past, and Michelle has also worked for three other CSA farmers. We spent the 2006 growing season touring, by bicycle, 31 of Michigan’s 70+ CSA farms, volunteering on each one, getting to know the farmers, and recording video footage which was used to create a CSA documentary short film. In 2007 we had a small wholesale garden and market garden here at the farm, and the results were super encouraging. We feel confident in our ability to bring you the quality, flavor, freshness, and beauty we associate with CSA-grown produce. We’re honored that you are considering supporting our effort.
