This review is for the weekly CSA - I haven't been to the booth at urban harvest or farm dinner. I…read morewas introduced to concept of a CSA from my aunt that lives in Wisconsin. After researching the options in the Houston area, I settled in Wood Duck Farm and I am so glad I did. I am mid-way through my second term in Wood Duck Farm's CSA and I still love it as much as the first day. I opted for the partial share as there are just two of us and I still often end up giving things away to friends/family/coworkers. So far we've had great variety, but a few mainstays. There were a lot of greens, broccoli and cauliflower in the winter boxes. However, I was able to blanch and freeze what we didn't or couldn't eat. These even taste so much better than your grocery frozen veggies. Then we started getting strawberries. I've never been a big fan of berries in general, but these strawberries taste sooo good and lasted almost two weeks (didn't get fuzzy, but more mushy which might be due to all the rain we had at that time) in fridge as opposed to days for those in the grocery store. We've also gotten several radishes (wish there were more but such is farming), lettuce (several varieties), micro greens, zucchini, squash, potatoes, onions (super flavorful), green beans (can't wait for more!), Brussels sprouts, snap peas, carrots, cabbage, collard greens, mustard greens, kale, turnips, beets. In the coming weeks Van said we can look forward to peaches (!!!!!), corn, blueberries and much much more! All for the low low price of $24-33/ Week. Seriously, the food to cost ratio is insane. You'd spend a lot more at the store for sub-par food. Initially, I felt like there was a lot more communication and recipes. But as harvest picked up, there are far fewer emails which is okay with me. I've modified my schedule to start planning meals through tuesday/wednesday when I find out what's in the box. However, whenever there's an issue that affects delivery time (rare and not much later), I've been contacted via email and VM. I've also purchased several of the add-ons and haven't been disappointed yet. This includes farm fresh eggs (though at $6/pop I've only done it once, my previously mentioned aunt started selling eggs and it's only $3 for hers!), local cheddar cheese, the naked chicken salad (I'm addicted) and a pot pie. All yummy! In Summary: Wood Duck Farm rocks!

This is a quaint and fairly priced farm that offers everything from honey, milk, cheese, beef, eggs and so on.

I like to sip on the heavy cream (it tastes like ice cream!) and I use it in so much. I haven't tried the fudgie only because I know I'll become the #1 fan and won't be able to live without it.

It was about 78 degrees outside, felt like 82, and with some cloudiness it was tolerable though still definitely sweaty. I would recommend bringing hiking boots or rain boots as footwear, the grass was very dewy in the morning and our feet were soaked in water after tramping on the grass for about 15 minutes. The energy at the farm was infectious! Coming from inside the loop, we are starved for nature. The welcoming vibe and natural surroundings really made it feel like a wonderful nature getaway only 45 minutes from the bustling city. The workers were smiling and relaxed, and gave us friendly advice. You can bring your own buckets but they also provide a cute cardboard box that can hold 10 lbs of berries, for 3 dollars. I would say the box is quite worth it--it has a little wire hanger on the top so you can carry it with you as you pick and the farm people suggested bringing it back in the future. They said that others have returned with boxes from 2019! We had a bit of confusion initially with the parking. There is no drive way and you drive across grass to park at the small makeshift lot, marked by cones. Pay attention to road signs on Binford road however it is pretty straightforward and should not be a huge issue. The farm is not large and you can walk from the entrance to the last blackberry field in about 15 minutes. It is easy to search the fields for ripe berries. The workers suggested where to find berries as well. As of 6/7, I saw lots of red berries but only 2-3 flowers. Although the farm put up a notice saying they are picked out for tomorrow, I would say you could probably eke out a few more weekends of blackberries, seeing the abundance of red berries. The Berry quality is amazing!! The drupes are huge and juicy. Some berries are quite large. They are extremely sweet and delicious. We initially only planned on picking a pound or two, but picking is so much fun that we ended up with 4 lbs. with entry fee being 3 dollars, basket being 3 dollars, and the fruit being 7 dollars for a lb, I'd say it is a decent deal for a few hours of decompressing in nature plus high quality, juicy fruit that is incredibly fresh and sweet. We observed abundant insect life, including lots of interesting spiders and green heteropterans. I studied entomology in college and it felt like an insect field trip honestly. We will be back for fig and grape season!!! If you're looking for a fun way to get hands on and pull yourself away from your phone this summer, Neal's berry farm is the spot!

I had no idea that this farm existed until recently. The original owner's of Neal's Restaurant in Spring decided to get out of the restaurant business in 2009 and went into the farming business. The purpose of my visit was to pick blackberries. Farm admission is $2 for those 2 years and up. You have to pay $2 for a blackberry/fruit picking box, and you can bring it back the next time you visit. If you plan to cut vegetables and flowers, you'll need to bring your own scissors. Also don't forget to bring mosquito repellant. I barely saw any mosquitos but I got bitten. There were a lot of blackberries to pick, and they tasted good. You can even buy a plant to take home and grow yourself. You can cut as many zinnias that will fit in a solo cup for $3. I got kale, eggplant and zucchini too. I'm sad I missed peach season and fig season is coming up. There's a sink to wash your hand and a port-a-potty. The parking area was over grass, and it was organized. The people I encountered were friendly, but they are strict about closing time. The only reason why I didn't give this place an extra star was b/c there weren't activities like you would find at other farms and a picnic area (I saw tables so maybe it was closed off b/c of the pandemic.) Overall I had a great time and would highly recommend it.
