About Us / Waynes Produce Farm History:
Wayne's Produce is a sixth generation family owned and operated local farm situated in Jarratt, Virginia. What began as a traditional row crop farm to just a couple of acres of produce in 2003, has now grown to over 100 acres of produce. We provide only the sweetest, highest-quailty produce to our local community through our farm market located in Jarratt and also at the Emporia Farmer's Market. This year, we wil begin offering fresh, local produce through our Community Supported Agriculture subscribtion delivery program. We offer over 50 vegetable and fruit crops, however, we are known for our sweet watermelons and vine-ripened tomatoes. All our crops are grown using an intergrade pest management system, which means we work in harmony with natural enemies (ladybugs, praying mantids, and bees) and try to incorporate natural practices (crop rotation and pest scouting) to reduce pesticide and chemical use on our fruits and vegetables.This year, we are offering a 20-week CSA subscription (pick-up or delivery) from the week of May 17, 2010 through September 27, 2010.In additionto our "famous" watermelons and tomatoes, we offer asparagus, broccoli, (shelled) butterbeans, cabbage, cantelope, cucumbers, eggplant, greenbeans, onions, peaches, potatoes (Irish & sweet), radish, southern peas, squash, sweet corn, turnips, and many, many more! .
