Greetings!
It’s the beginning of a new season for Local Farmers Garden. Hope
all has been well since the last November newsletter. I have been
working on many projects and I wish to inform you of some changes with
Farmers Garden. Denice and I have recently phased out of our organic
farming business. We are no longer able to make the commitment we had
enjoyed with Farmers Garden. In the past months we contemplated the
direction of Farmers Garden and feel we have made the best choice
in working with another local farm. Babé Farms, a long time
neighbor and friends of our family will offer an assurance of fresh
quality and a variety of local vegetables. We believe this is the best
choice to continue and expand the new Babé Farms Local Farmers
Garden.
To give you a brief introduction to Babé Farms, this local
family owned farming operation grows a very diverse variety of
specialty vegetables and lettuces, unequal to any farm on the central
coast. Babé Farms was founded in 1986 and is now owned by Judy
Lundberg Wafer, a native of the Santa Maria and Lompoc Valleys’.
I too am now a part of the “Babé Farms family”,
working with the production and harvest departments on a daily basis.
Most of Babé Farms products are not available here on the central coast
usually available at upper end restaurants and specialty stores across
the nation. Now, a kaleidoscope of specialty vegetables are available
to you as part of a weekly box of veggies. A portion of the vegetables
are grown on their 200 certified organic acres. Many of the baby
vegetables, not certified organic are grown with many of the same
sustainable and organic cultural practices. Babé Farms is 100%
committed to providing you with high quality, fresh produce. Coming
soon a video on www.babefarms.com with a preview of what’s in
store for the future of the new Babé Farms Local Farmers Garden.
I sincerely thank you for your past support and am happy to still be a part of Farmers
Garden. If you have any questions I will be available as in the past. I assure you that we
at Babé Farms will continue to provide you with fresh local veggies....you will enjoy the
new box!
