Fall is here! The bounty continues at the Tierra Vegetables Farm. We are bursting at the seams! Did you know that all Tomatoes, including Heirlooms are only $2.50/ pound? There is also a discount for non-heirloom Tomatoes when you buy five or more pounds and (if we have any) softish Tomatoes, they are hugely discounted. Please let me know if you want any in bulk and we can set you up! Watermelons are only 49 cents/ pound this weekend!!!! (while they last I guess)

Celery! We have lots and lots of Celery. It is dark green, very crunchy and bursting with flavor. Come crunch on a stalk before you buy! Please let me know if you know of any restaurant that may want some in bulk. Thanks.

Talk about Diversity!

I am so proud of our farmers! We have such beautiful variety, so packed with flavor and nutrition! Come on out and see and taste! We love to have you out in the field, taking pictures, showing the children where their food comes from! Go to the second floor of the White Barn and you can see the field in its splendor....

Speaking of which: The White Barn "Barn Warming Party" is set for October 9 from noon to 5. We are hoping that you can come out and help us welcome the White Barn to the Tierra Vegetables Farm. We will have games, hay ride tours, tacos available for $10/ plate, hopefully music. It is also Wayne and Lee's Dad's 90th Birthday celebration!

Farm Stand at the White Barn is OPEN TUESDAY - FRIDAY 11 - 6 AND SATURDAY 10 - 4! 651 Airport Blvd, Santa Rosa, CA

On a more personal note: As many of you know, I am training for the Nike Women's 1/2 Marathon on October 16 in San Francisco. I am training hard with the Leukemia/ Lymphoma Team in Training and raising money for cancer research.
