What We’re Harvesting
Most of the produce at our farm stand is harvested within 24 hours of market day in East Austin or our Milam County farm 75 miles northeast of Austin. What we’re growing and selling changes with the seasons, so check out our seasonal report. We also sell (at the farm only) Larry’s Smoke-Dried Tomatoes, a farm favorite. (Roma tomatoes from our Milam County farm dry in our home-built smokehouse for 3-5 days, flavored with smoke from post oak growing on our farm. A richly smoky, versatile, and surprising bacon flavor emerges.
We are happy to supplement our harvest with goods from other local farmers. We sell dairy products from Dos Lunas and Bee Tree (cheeses), longhorn beef from Dear Run Land & Cattle, lamb from IO Ranch, pork sausage/pork chops from Taylor Farm, Bison from Thunderheart, Bison w/ organ meat (Ancestral Blend) from Roam Ranch by Force of Nature, Chicken from Pure Roots Farm & dessert from Miles of Chocolate, eggs from Coyote Creek, and Texas Rainwater from Smithville, TX.
Checks, cash, & cards accepted!
*Please no dogs and no smoking for the safety of our plants, children, and animals.
