OUR SPRING SEASON
VISIT US IN MAY FOR SEEDLINGS!
(AND a DOSE OF fresh cider DONUTS...because waiting until September is just too much)
Here at Pakeen Farm, we spend our late winter and early spring growing many different varieties of SEEDLINGS, including tomatoes, vegetables, flowers and herbs. Depending on the year, we also grow a variety of tasty SPRING SALAD GREENS in our high tunnel--harvesting our first veggies of the year in May.
We invite our community to visit the farm during our Spring Season, and to get their own growing season started with Pakeen!
