FEATURED AT THE FARM

Asparagus
A quarter acre of two-year old asparagus crowns were planted at Iseley Farms in 2008.  To insure increased yield for future years, very few spears will be harvested this season.  By the spring of 2010 we should have enough asparagus to feed this end of the county!  Nothing represents the onset of spring like fresh green asparagus.  Watch this crop grow!

 
Bulk Grains from Lindley Mills
Iseley Farms is proud to provide the opportunity to purchase certified organic and kosher grains milled right here in Alamance County.  Lindley Mills has been milling grains on Big Cane Creek since 1755.  Among the products available at the farm will be:  Yellow Corn Grits, Yellow Corn Meal, Rolled Oats and Oat Bran Muffin Mix.

 
Geraniums and Petunias
These beautiful plants, grown by John Clanton at Alamance County’s Smith-Clanton Greenhouses, will be available for sale during strawberry season.  They will be potted in containers ready for you to transplant to your own planter gardens or landscape.   

 Baked Goods
Our neighbor Nancy Dailey has started sharing her incredibly delicious baked goods with us for you- you have to taste to believe!

New Ice Cream Flavor
Most of you are familiar with our famous strawberry ice cream, a perfect combination of Iseley Farms strawberries and cream from the happy cows at Mapleview Dairy. Through the years we have toyed with the idea of adding another flavor with produce grown on the farm. This past winter the perfect idea just buzzed right into our brainstorming.  How about a flavor that combines the delicate flavors of everything that blooms on the farm?  How about Honey Vanilla?  Iseley Farms honey churned with Mapleview cream is another combination that can’t be beat!  (or BEE-t?)
 
Farm Fresh Honey
Jane has been raising bees since ­­­­­1988. Our 12 hives produced a record amount of honey in 2009.  
 
The USDA estimates that insect pollinated plants (fruits, nuts, soybeans and vegetables) account for one third of our diet, and honeybees do approximately 80% of the work (other pollinators like bats, butterflies, moths, bumble bees, and hummingbirds contribute to the other 20%.)
 
The wide variety of fruits, vegetables, flowers and grains grown on this farm as well as blooming trees, shrubs and even organic tobacco blooms produce a taste of honey that is unique to our farm.  Why eat local honey?  It is the reliance on this regional flora and its pollens that is at the heart of new studies showing that eating local honey can help prevent allergies caused by the pollens in a particular area.  And because it is all natural raw honey processed without chemical additives, it tastes better!
