It's how it all started... The field was planted with onion sets from the Vidalia Region of Georgia. We set up a table on the farm and drove the truck around town loaded with onions. People loved them and suggested we should offer other things. But the first onions we pulled on the farm remain our signature... the photo on our logo. Walt orders them in August and they arrive the same day they are pulled, usually the first week in November for short day SWEET onions and early December for RED onions. The onion sets are ready for planting in your garden/field. Just add water, sunshine and TLC. Plant them next to strawberries and grow your own Strawberry Onions!

A Seminole Pumpkin is a specific, heat-resistant heirloom variety historically cultivated by Indigenous peoples in Florida for hundreds of years, though its broader botanical ancestry traces back to Central/South America. They grow on massive, aggressive climbing vines that thrive in extreme heat, humidity, and pest-heavy climates like Florida. They were often planted near the base of trees so the vines could climb upward and the pumpkins would hang down.

Mississippi Sweet Potatoes are a staple on Walt's Farm Stand. Not only are they consistently the least stringy of the Sweet Potatoes in our opinion, they also sprout and can be planted so you can grow your own--in other words they are alive! We follow the EWG  in order to stay informed, and here is what they say... "Unlike white potatoes, non-organic sweet potatoes are not sprayed with chlorpropham. And sweet potatoes rank only two spots off the Clean Fifteen in EWG’s full list of fruit and vegetable rankings, meaning that sweet potatoes are a cleaner alternative to potatoes."
