The 2016 Election

2016 is a pivotal year.  This year we get to vote for our future.  This year’s decisions will effect us for years to come.  It is a year where you don’t want to waste your votes.  It is a year to vote early and vote often. Wait, you thought I was talking about the Presidential […]

Planetary Systems

As you all know, with Fresh Earth Farms as the name of the farm we’ve had a tomato shaped Earth as our logo.  Clever huh?  Well, we are no longer content with just this small patch of our planetary system.  No, we want the whole solar system.  And that’s what we’ve done these past couple […]
