Happy Hills Farm has been proudly serving Shelby County with fine produce and flowers since 1975. Here we share some of the memories and recipes we’ve picked up along the way.

We’ve planted our cold-weather crops!

March 22, 2020

We began planting this week! Here James is putting our first seeds in the soil. We’ve planted: 

KALE
Kale is a classic fall garden crop. Kale is exceptionally cold tolerant, maintaining its dark green color and rich nourishment long into the fall and winter months when most other crops have withered away.

ARUGULA
Who doesn’t love the spicy sharp kick of a fresh arugula salad? Arugula does very well in cool temperatures and is a quick and easy addition to any fall garden.

PEAS
Until recently, I never thought about peas as a fall garden crop. However, this classic spring staple enjoys the cool temperatures of autumn as well and peas grown in fall tend to taste sweeter than spring peas.
