First tomato harvest of the season 🍅

And of course… we can’t forget about our staff. You guys rock your roles everyday! Thank you for being team players, getting the work done, and having fun in the process. Way to go team!👏🏻

Summer has come to a close and what a great summer it has been! Here are a few highlight pics from our summer program with @bridgemission and @bigleagueimpact. We can’t thank you enough for the opportunity to host these kiddos at the farm- to educate them, grow with them, and show them a good ole day on the farm! 🧑🏼‍🌾

We can’t wait to do it all over again next year!

We had the best day with @bridgemission yesterday! So much learning, so much fun, and so many happy faces! 🌾👩‍🌾🧑‍🌾

A Friday filled with eduction and BBQ.👏🏻 We loved having the Golden Isles Career Academy students at the farm yesterday. They learned about sustainable growing methods, would rejuvenation, helped calibrate our garden fertigation system, and the benefits/challenges of raising multi-species flocks! Left with full tummies and lots of knowledge!

Did you know you can benefit by mixing guinea fowl in with your free range chickens?
.
Here are some key benefits:

1️⃣ Natural means of pest control
2️⃣ Protectors… Guineas are LOAD and are A+ overachievers in the squawking game lol. They will alert your flock of danger in a heartbeat!
3️⃣ Natural weed killers and fertilizers. Our chickens roam freely through the pecan orchard, so the guineas happily accompany them

✝️ He is risen

Isaiah 43:1 “Don't fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine.”

We may be redeemed because Jesus gave his life. FOR US. And for that we are grateful. Happy Resurrection day to everyone! We hope you are celebrating this special day with your family and loved ones. ✨❤️

✨Five Oaks Farm Raw Unfiltered Honey
Did you know consuming ‘Local Honey’ can help lessen your seasonal allergies? That’s right!!! Local honey is made from local pollen. When you consume honey made by local pollen, over time you become less sensitive to that pollen. As a result, you experience fewer seasonal allergy symptoms! Pretty cool right? Let us help you this season!🌻🍯
