Launch in external player Farm Profile The farm is located at 7985 Old Bainbridge Rd, Tallahassee, FL  32303 The farmers are John and Debbie Moore and a short bio follows: D & J Produce was started in the Spring of 2003.  The goal of our company is to provide fresh, locally grown produce at a reasonable and fair price. Both Debbie and I grew up in a farming environment.  My father was a part-time farmer and his father and relatives were all full time farmers, growing various food crops, dairy pork and poultry.   John I have been living in Tallahassee all of my life except for a 7-8 year period in which I was employed in the restaurant and bar business down in St. Petersburg, Florida.  I decided to get out of that business and move back to Tallahassee because I missed living in the country and having more than concrete, glass and pavement to look at.  City life wasn’t for this country boy.  I have always had an interest in growing things, watch them flower and produce.  I guess I inherited this interest from my father, grandfather, and relatives.  Debbie  Debbie grew up on a hog farm and her family grew produce as well. Debbie was born and raised in Moultrie, Georgia.  She has always felt at home and comfortable “getting her hands dirty”.  The sight of planting a seed and watching it grow to maturity gives her a sense of unity with our earth.  She loves to cook fresh, homegrown products to feed her family and friends.  (Believe me, I’ve gained 20 lbs since I married her, and I love to eat!)  She’s very “old school” in her cooking methods and loves to make homemade treats such as jams, jellies, cracklings, lard and does a lot of home canning and freezing of produce not consumed fresh. I guess you could say we are both like “two peas in a pod”.  As I mentioned before, we enjoy farming even though it is a lot of hard work and sweat.  However, the end results are both satisfying and tasty.  Like our mother says, “People gotta eat”, and we want to make sure that they are eating fresh, nutritious and flavorful food.   Key Benefits s Through direct marketing, CSAs give farmers the fairest return on their products. s A CSA helps to create dialog between farmers and consumers and increases understanding of how, where and by whom food is grown. s A CSA creates a sense of social responsibility and stewardship of local land. s By purchasing shares in a CSA, members keep food dollars in the local community and maintain local food production. What’s in a share? A share includes a weekly selection of fresh, locally grown, produce.  Our Promise BBCSA will only supply what is produced locally on the farm(s) involved     Vegetable Varieties Some fresh market growers like to limit production to the crops that grow best for them. However, the CSA grower focuses on a wide range of vegetables so that subscribers receive an interesting variety of vegetables throughout the season. Depending on the length of the subscription period, this may include everything from asparagus and rhubarb in the early spring to parsnips and kale in the late fall.   A share in our harvest is seasonal, so the size and composition of the boxes change as the season progresses   Information Request Form Select the items that apply, and then let us know how to contact you.
