Believe it or not, there’s still quite a bit of growing going on underneath the snow. Definitely slowing down as the days get shorter and we approach the solstice, but not dormant quite yet! Just dropped off a large donation of #HFFF and @granorfarm veggies with the FCG Community Food Network in Benton Heights. Hoping to do one or two more before the year ends! #decembergarden #seasonextension #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #HFFF #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

The Harris clan came out to help with our final #MobileFoodPantry of the year in #NewTroyMichigan, and it was our most successful yet! 131 people served, including 34 children and 35 seniors. As always, the @feedingwestmich truck provided a wide range of goods, while we had 4 tables full of freshly harvested produce from #HFFF and @granorfarm. Right after this photo was taken, @harborcountrymission came by to pick up what was left over and will be distributing it to people in need over the next few days. Thanks to @new_troy_community_center for hosting again, and to Church of the Mediator and Harbert Community Church for providing volunteers. Happy Thanksgiving! #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #HFFF #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

There’s still a chance to taste some #HFFF produce via one of SW Michigan’s most talented soup chefs @luisascafe! Now on today’s specials menu as well as frozen to go: a delicious curried lentil soup with #HFFF turnips, greens and purple carrots! Get it while you can, and help spread the word about the work we do!

Oh. My. Goodness. Look at what Vivian @luisascafe has created for this weekend’s menu with #HFFF #turnips & #purplecarrots! Creamy turnip & greens soup topped with roasted shallots & carrots - this will be a rare chance to purchase something made - expertly - with the veggies we grow. Thanks to Luisa’s for helping to get the word out about the work we’re doing! #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

The veggies are still coming despite this winter weather. Good sized donations, including @granorfarm popcorn and #HFFF apple slices, today at First Church of God Community Food Network in Benton Heights and River Valley Senior Center in Harbert. #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #HFFF #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

#Lettucemix staying warm and happy underneath two layers of cover (greenhouse plastic and spunbond fabric) and a dusting of snow! #seasonextension #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #HFFF #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

Our final #HFFF-sponsored #MobileFoodPantry in #GalienMichigan for the year, before & after 55 households came through to pick up fresh HFFF & @granorfarm produce along with goods from the @feedingwestmich truck. Big thanks to Rick Murphy from Feeding America & Donna Potter from the Galien-Olive Branch Parish for being such great partners, & to @whistlestopgrocery for donating plastic containers so we could donate apple slices from our orchard! #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

#Garlic going into the ground today. Big thanks to @granorfarm for donating their extra seed garlic. See you in July, little guy! #fallplanting #fooddonation #feedamerica #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

So honored to be the beneficiary of this month’s “Cocktails for a Cause” @thefalsefront in New Buffalo, featuring local deliciousness from @fruitbelt! Portions of the proceeds from these two cocktails, which debut this evening, will go to #HFFF, so be sure to stop by for a sip!

After several frosty nights, our peppers, tomatoes, basil, and zucchini are gone, gone, gone. But hardier crops like spinach, lettuce and kale persevere - even thrive! - especially with a little help from these low tunnels. The spunbond fabric allows light and water through while keeping fall frosts at bay. #themoreyouknow🌈 #seasonextension #fooddonation #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #HFFF #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

Almost forgot to post these photos of us getting set up for our 2nd #MobileFoodPantry in #NewTroyMichigan last week. It was another success despite the cold rain! Thanks to the Episcopal Church of the Mediator in Harbert for sponsoring, @feedingwestmich for providing a truck full of food, @new_troy_community_center for hosting, @granorfarm for providing lovely #OrganicFlowers and additional produce, and all of the great volunteers! #HFFF #fooddonation #feedamerica #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving

Excited to report that as of last week we have now more than doubled in 2018 the total amount of fruits and veggies that we harvested last year. And we still have lots more ahead of us! Case in point: These 3 successions of scallion plantings to ensure continuous harvests. #themoreyouknow🌈 #HFFF #fooddonation #feedamerica #nevertoolatetodonate #nevertoolatetogarden #harborcountry #swmichigan #puremichigan #eatlocal #organicgardening #healthyliving
