thanks fivecedarsfarm for the info but all 6 times i came out there last year the sign was up at the drive entrance and the cable was down indicating you were open but still had no help with puchasing the goods maybe it will work out better this year. I have my own garden planted but still will need some of the things you grow that i did not have room to plant for the freezer. thanks for the service you do for this community.

Sorry if we missed you. We are open 9-2 every Tue Thur and Sat during the season with someone on duty. The hours are posted on a sign at the road as well as the produce we have for sale that day. We are located behind the house at the barn. Follow the gravel drive at the sign. We expect to start in early June with squash and cucumbers with tomatoes and others to follow. Please call 678-246-1216 if you cannot find us.

It is good to know fersh vegatables are as close as cherokee road but I made 6 trips out there last year to buy and never got anyone to come out and help with the produce. Is it buy on an honor system or something like that?

Newbie28: I was just thinking the same thing - weekday mornings are no help to those who have to work at that time, but what is the deal with assuming that people who don't work are "welfare junkies" or "illegals"? You are aware that some people work evenings, nights and/or weekends, aren't you?

Great. Don't you people know people have to WORK! Why not have it on Saturdays when we working class people can get fresh veggies. Or is this just for the welfare junkies and illegals?
