Organic markets are not typical but this place is as atypical as it gets. You will see the sign off of Route 1 and you will start to second guess yourself as you drive a few miles down the road only to see the sign falling down that reads the names of various vegetables. At this sign, your GPS will tell you to turn right down a gravel road, Cross Rd, and you will go another 1+ mile down a deserted road to the farm. The farm itself is run by Mr and Mrs Perlman who have worked this farm for more than four decades, raised 2 children to adulthood, without central heating, electric, or plumbing! Their story is truly amazing yet they have managed to build an organic farm that supplies individuals and local restaurants. They have a system here that they have developed and expect to conform if you wish to eat the fruits of their labors. Call on Monday. Mrs Perlman will tell you what they have for you to pick up at your appointed time on Thursday. This is not drive up when you feel like it. They are too busy working. The place is a bit rustic but don't let that scare you from the great bounty of their farm. Closed Saturday.
