Currently, there are still CSA shares available for our 2009 season. Click here for more info about our CSA.  We will let you know when there aren’t any more shares available.  Sign up for a CSA share today! Making the commitment to eat local, seasonal produce is a very important thing.  It really helps you to get to know your local farmers and understand what goes into growing the food you eat.  Your food doesn’t travel thousands of miles to get to your table when you buy from small family farms.  It normally travels less than 50 miles.  Also,when you buy locally, you are helpingRead More →

We are now also accepting half shares into our 2009 CSA program as I mentioned on the previous post.  I did leave out a few details.  The cost per half share is $225 plus $50 deposit.  That is half the cost of a full share and half of the deposit.  If you have any questions regarding this, please don’t hesitate to call or email us.  I have not updated the application as of yet.  I will be updating it shortly.  If you would like to buy a half share, please just write it on the application if it isn’t updated at that time.Read More →

Even though the market has closed until the spring, that doesn’t change the fact that free range fresh eggs are still in demand and the hens still lay eggs all  year long.  So, if you would like fresh eggs, please give us a call at 704-813-9283 or email us at todd@shadycreekfarmandnursery.com. We will be more than happy to deliver some fresh eggs to you.Read More →

I hope we didn’t miss too many customers today at the Charlotte Tailgate Market.  We tried getting to the market but due to the marathon that was taking place, all roads leading to the market were blocked. We will be at the Market next Saturday, December 20, 2008. If anyone needs any eggs or pecans before next Saturday, we do have them available here at the farm.  Please call before you come to make sure we still have them available and are not sold out.Read More →

Several people have been interested in half shares, therefore we have decided to make them available to everyone who doesn’t want a full share worth of vegetables.  The cost for a half share will be $225 (plus $50 deposit) and you will receive around $10 worth of vegetables every week for 26 weeks starting in April, which is half the amount of the full share.  We will put a little more than $10 worth in it.  Just like we’ll be putting a little more than $20 worth in the full share. We are still taking applications for our 2009 CSA program.  If you have anyRead More →

It seems like it keeps getting colder and colder every week.  Well, it seems like it to me anyways.  Last Saturday was really cold at the Charlotte Tailgate Market.  I want to thank everyone who came out and supported us at the market.  It was our first time at the Tailgate market.  I’ve read where other farmers really feel like they have a community that cares about the local farmers and I got that feeling this past Saturday.  It was truly satisfying to see all these people care about what they put into their bodies and about how their food was raised and produced.  Also,Read More →
