Seasonal Food: The Food of Spring

Fernbrook is a place to make connections between eating and the land, to experience first hand the world from which food comes. It is not only gourmet eating; it is a celebration of gratitude and place.

The Giving Farm

by Vicki Witcher

Hens give eggs.
Pigs give ham.
Cows give milk.
Strawberries give jam.

Bees give honey.
Goats give cheese.
Farms give food,
I'd like some, please.
