We are in the beginning stages of planning with Roberson Creek Farm. They have been selected as a demonstration site and we will soon begin the design phase. Stay tuned for more details! Meanwhile you can get a feel for their farm layout from the photos below.

Below are some recent shots taken in early spring 2007 showing the layout of the farm.

A newly planted field of sweet corn.

One of their sons and his family live in this house. Three generations live at the farm.
Roberson Creek winds behind the house.

This is a view leaving their son's house going back towards Bobby and Vicki's house.

This view shows some of the fields behind Bobby and Vicki's house.

This is a true family operation, and that includes the dogs! They are never far away.
Bobby and grandson Erin pick sweet corn with the help of Drake and Rascal.

Erin learns the value of hard work from his granddad!

They are a strong anchor at the market, with consistent volume
and diversity of product that keeps customers coming back for more.
