Hunter Farms CSA
This year, Hunter Farms is offering a punch card option along with the pre-packed boxes. For those who select the punch card, they still get the same pounds as the boxes each week, but will get to select their own produce.
Boxes will be distributed July 6 to Sept. 11.
New produce offerings this year include yellow flesh watermelons, white and purple cauliflower, beets, carrots, lettuces, herbs, yellow tomatoes, brussels sprouts, honeydew, and eggplant.
The farm will open for on-site sales of vegetable plants and produce in April from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. The address is 6813 Highway 601 South.
Hunter Farms will also have a farmers market stand in Elkin every Saturday until April at the Heritage Center with dry aged beef, farm-raised pork, cabbage, brussels sprouts and succulents. When the traditional farmers market seasons open, Hunter Farms will have stands at Elkin, Yadkinville, Mt. Airy, and Mocksville.
