Did your New Years Resolution include any of the following: Lose weight? Get Exercise? Save Money? Reduce Stress? Have More Family Time. Eat Better? If your answer is yes to one or more, then consider having your own family garden plot for 2010 at the Borden Farm.
We have reserved family garden plots for you at the farm. The plots are all in full sun, tilled and ready to plant, behind a 10′ fence around our 7 acres garden to keep the deer out, and furnished with three drip lines across each plot. If it doesn’t rain one inch a week, we will water your garden for you just as we water ours. You plant, weed, harvest and enjoy. Your plot is open to you from sunrise to sunset during the growing season. Plots are set out in various sizes–20 by 50 ($50), 20 by 100 ($90) or 20 by 225 ($125).
Other amenities include: We are open to the public 7 days a week. During our open hours you have the opportunity to tour our gardens on 1,000 feet of mulched paths that will take you past our growing herbs, annual and perennial flowers, and our vegetable production facilities. You can take the paths to the pond to see the ducks and geese, or the path to the chicken house. When you travel the Beaver Trail you will see rabbit hutches and be able to feed the rabbits. You can lunch at our picnic tables located under century old pine trees in the farm yard.
If you have an interest in learning more about our rental gardens, send us email at Win@BordenFarmMarket.com and we will send you a complete packet of information. In the subject line of your email note “garden plot rentals” and in the body include your full name and your email address.
