Featured Farm: Stone Gardens

Cucumbers, zucchini & squash
Stone Gardens is a family operated farm nestled in the White Hills (or the White Hills/Huntington border) of Shelton. Started in 1998, Stone Gardens provides fresh vegetables, flowers and fruit. I visit them weekly to sort throught their fresh assortment, currently of veggies and herbs. Stone Gardens also features a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), which we are thinking about joining because our garden is going to need some more time to grow.

Fresh vegetables picked daily

Although Stone Gardens is not organic, it practices Integrated Pest Management which entails strict monitoring of pests and intervention when the documented threshold is noted, preventing or minimizing damage to the crops. *Note: That's about all I understood, so please visit their website for detailed information ;-)


 
Another perk, Stone Gardens Farm offers fresh poultry, pork and beef: all are pre-order. The chicken is farm raised, antibiotic and growth hormone free and are available all year. Pork, Turkey and Beef are by pre order only. Please visit Stone Gardens Farm for more information.  


Check out what I picked up today!
Romaine lettuce, cucumber, snap peas & a basil bunch.
