A highlight of any visit to the farm stand is to enjoy a cup of locally roasted Ilse coffee while nibbling a freshly baked scone and relaxing in the fresh farm air scented that is fragrant with herbs and flowers. For many, the best part of the visit is to stroll through the massive garden for a sneak peek of what produce is on the horizon for the rest of the season. 

Today, farm stands like Husky Meadows are more important than ever because people want transparency about where their food is coming from. The farms stand at Husky Meadows first opened in 2020 at the height of the Covid pandemic because people wanted to know that their food was freshly harvested, organically grown, and raised in their own community. Since that time, Husky Meadows Farm has seen this trend increase. 

To meet the demand the farm team has revamped the Farm Stand experience by expanding the hours of operation and increasing the types of fresh produce and culinary goodies offered. "As the weather gets warmer and we have more and more food coming out of the ground, we hope to offer a variety of grab-and-go salads and other picnic fares for people to enjoy when visiting the farm," says Farmer Brett Ellis. “Getting field-fresh produce and artisan-baked goods has never been easier,” added Ellis.
