We Over Me Farm started out as the initiative of Paul Quinn College when they converted its football field into a farm.  This farm is used to provide "learning tool" for their students, of which 15% of their produce is donated.  This project has two goals.  First is "to transform the health and well-being of under-resourced communities in Southern Dalls by providing fresh, health, affordable food options."  Their other goal is to educate and empower future generations "to take better care of themselves, their environments, and their communities."  Some of their produce include shoots, microgreens, herbs, garlic, onions, leeks, radishes, turnips, carrots, tomatoes, peppers, and okra.

It is not every day that you come across a business that has an interesting portfolio such as the Bucking Goat Farm. Do you want fresh vegetables and microgreens? They got it. Pickled foods? They are always in stock. How about goat milk soap? That's quite the pivot but hey, they have this too! And just in case you need cut flowers, Bucking Goat Farm sells these too. No wonder their stall in the farmer's market is very attractive and colorful with this wide array of products for sale.

Deep Roots CSA is showing us what it looks like when community-supported agriculture is successful and sustainable. Deep Roots CSA is a collaboration that aims to meet a simple goal: make sure everyone has healthy food. Two farming families collaborated and they collaborated with the community who promised to support their endeavor. In return, they are promised fruits and vegetables produced without pesticides or GMOs. You'll never get tired of hearing feel-good stories like this, especially when you are on the table eating food that nourishes and makes you feel good.
