Word From The Farmer

We are pleased to announce that we are working with Holy Cross Abbey again, which is 10 minutes from our GCF location. We have expanded an extra 200 acres which will provide us a 30-50% increase of growing capacity. This provides us more opportunity to add new varieties of produce to our CSA boxes and leaving more fields at the farm for u-pick. The Abbey is along the Shenandoah River which will enable excellent irrigation that will be a significant enhancement to our production quality. You can find out more about the Abbey by visiting their website here. They make mouth watering fruitcakes as well!

You will notice a change in terminology and simplified pricing options as we have spent time redeveloping our CSA options to be more user friendly with simpler billing options based on your survey feedback. We have consolidated our rates from 16 pricing options to a simple share price per box for pick up at the farm or delivery. There are no longer "New" or "Returning" member box fees or "Half" or "Full" share differences. One share is equivalent to a "Half share." Want more than one box? Just purchase 2 shares. For more information please read our Terms and Conditions.

Welcome Sandy!

 

Sandy Every Farmer needs a dog! It only took a couple little wishes and Santa surprised them on Christmas morning with an adorable 8 week old Yellow Lab. It's been over 10 years since Great Country Farms has had a farm dog and Farmer Mark is already looking forward to having Sandy ride with him on the tractor.
