Now Taking 2012 CSA Memberships
Our 2012 CSA memberships are now open. We have been delivering to our CSA members for over ten years. Our knowledge of vegetables and our attention to our member needs have made our memberships grow to 200 shares. Each week we deliver rain or shine. During the 16 weeks members are treated to 6-8 different flavors in their bag each week. As an added treat we include popcorn and wheat berries grown on the farm and cornmeal and pastry wheat stone ground from these grains. Our weekly newsletter keeps members informed about the farm, harvest and farm visits. Each week an ingredient in the bag is highlighted to give members more information about the item and recipes to try and share.We want our members to be informed and in the end more knowledgeable about the agricultural process to bring their food from the field to the table.
We hope you will explore our site to learn more about us. Please let us know if we can answer any other questions that will help you make one of the best decisions you can make for yourself and your family.

National Popcorn Day is January 19
Here are some fun facts about popcorn from Covered Bridge Gardens, a proud grower of Ohio popcorn.
How high can popcorn kernels pop: up to 3 feet in the air.
Of the five types of corn -- sweet corn, dent corn, flint corn, pod corn and popcorn -- only popcorn pops.
Each kernel of popcorn contains a tiny drop of water. When heated, the expansion of this water causes the corn to pop.
It was the experimentation of popping popcorn with microwaves in 1945 that led to the creation of the microwave oven..
Almost all the popcorn consumed throughout the world is grown in the United States.
