SPRING 2012
What's new at La Buena Vida Farm?
We are expanding the garden for lot's more delicious, authentically grown food for your enjoyment and health!! As of March 2012 we have a new business partner, Nichole Brown, who is a long time family friend. She has joined us all the way from North Carolina. We welcome her and her fresh new ideas to the farm.
We hope you will welcome her too, as you will be seeing her starting this Thursday at the farm stand.
When and where will produce be available?
It is our goal this year of 2012 to provide a bountiful supply of fresh, wholesome food to our community. La Buena Vida Farm will be setting up our farm stand in front of Swap n Shop (on the corner of Hwy 80 & Portal Rd.) every other Thursday starting March 15th through April 19th at 11:30am - NM time. Hopefully, after that we will have enough quantity to do a farm stand every week.

How do I get a consistent supply of the best pick of the garden?
Through La Buena Vida Farm CSA program!!! Our CSA program will begin Thursday, April 19th. For those of you who have consistently participated in the farm CSA program, you know that you always get the first and best pick of the "bounty". Any excess produce that is not reserved for the CSA will be sold at farm stand. Our CSA members receive freshly baked organic bread, free range eggs, and 1 specialty item each week along with their produce. The cost is the same as has always been, $25 a week. This round will be a 5 week program. So, reserve your share TODAY, space is limited. Your participation in La Buena Vida Farm CSA program affords us the ability to reach our goals and reinvest in our farm. Give us call or email to confirm your spot.
We look forward to providing the Portal and Rodeo community with freshly harvested weekly produce.
