Seasonal Notebook / Updates

May 28 , 2014 Update

It is with great sadness and a bit of trepidation that I will no longer be providing farm produce updates on this website.

I have enjoyed keeping you all updated on the latest farm news over the last 14 years. I will continue to maintain this site as an archive for our family and farm history, remembrances, stories, photos and a source for recipes and fun and interesting facts on produce.

For the most up to date information on the daily availability of Jefferies Market produce please visit this website:

www.jefferies-orchard.com.

Thanks to WICS - Springfield for the nice feature on the farm on April 4 - you can view it here:

Thank you to the Illinois Times and Julianne Glatz for their wonderful article on the Orchard!

Call (217- 487-7582) before making the trip out to the Orchard as availability greatly depends upon the cooperation of Mother Nature.
