They had lots of tomato plants, peppers, cabbage, cukes and lettuce all reasonably priced. We passed on the budding flowers -- just too soon in the season, we think. But they had a lot of choices, so we'll be back in mid-May. We also like their indoor store; they have some fresh-grown tomatoes that are tasty and sell some very good locally grown canned and bottled products (try their apple sauce - really yummy). Good folks.

The building itself has no water, so I'm not sure about restroom or if they exist. The first floor has all this cute locally made stuff, and donuts and pies. Yum. The second floor has a bar right at the top of the stairs (I suspect when they're busy a line may form there) and there are roughly three rooms with different types of tables and chairs to sit in. It IS worth getting a drink with a donut. Just grab napkins for sugar spills. My drink had the face of a Halloween pumpkin, and even though I'm not a drinker, was sweet without being toothaching and fun to drink.

In addition to veggies, Carole and Mark also have free range chickens who jump in little cubicles to lay their eggs. Usually the Grandpa of the family who is in his 90's gathers the eggs and cleans them. The farm has stands at the Torrington Farmers' Market on Saturdays and at the Collinsville Farmers' Market on Sundays during the season. Recently Jack & I had the opportunity to take a tour of the grounds. The crop looked amazing. My favorite was a visit to the "chicken coop" which was a large room in a barn with an outdoor area. The critters even have a pigeon friend who hangs out with them.

The products were fresh; we did get the tiny baby melon which was alright, it was not sweet at all. I'd probably get the larger one next time. They also setup shop at the Canton Farmers Market every Sunday in the summer. I love supporting small farms so this is a great place to get some fresh produce.

Well, over the years we've seen a lot bigger and just a few smaller. All in all, there were about ten vendors here. Maybe it's too early in the season, so as we go further into the Summer there could be more. There's plenty of room in the school parking lot they're located in. Anyway, you'll see a nice variety of fruit and vegetables (garlic scapes, anyone?), and a lot of baked goods like breads, quiches, pastries, soft pretzels, and granola. We stopped at the Simple Delights bakery and picked up a nice Lemon Blueberry loaf and a Cinnamon Bun.
