Shady Side Farm of Holland
I just heard that there is going to be a football game this weekend. If you are inviting friends over to watch it, you might want to have food. To our surprise, one of our chef friends did a spot on two different Grand Rapids TV stations showing how to incorporate local food into your Superbowl celebration, including Shady Side Farm beans. You can watch (and find recipes) at these two links:

Funny Farm of Grant
It’s time to start thinking about your CSA for this year. Ask about our early sign-up special at Funny Farm this year. We have adapted our CSA this year to allow you your choice of veggies for the week. We will add 10% to the amount you choose for the summer growing season. As an incentive for the early joiners, we will increase your premium by $20, so your $300 CSA will net you $350 in produce for the summer. Special offer good until Feb. 20. We offer a mid-week delivery if you have busy Saturdays during the summer. Small extra charge, but may be worth it for the convenience.
As we have downsized the garden recently, we may have to limit our membership in order to maintain our quality.
New product! Dried kale two ways, whole leaf, or powdered. Perfect for adding to smoothies, soups and more!
Funny Farm’s own jam and jellies! Made with our own fruits, including Kiwi, Aronia berry, Crab Apple, Elderberry, and more!
