#MothersDayGiftGuide - Fresh Produce and Much More from Farmer Jones Farm at The Chef's Garden!

 *DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Farmer Jones Farm for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

With the exception of my wonderful family and football season (Go Pack Go!) there isn't much I love more than freshly picked produce.  Fresh produce is so beautiful and full of the promise of many delicious and nutritious meals ahead.  Farmer Jones Farm realized the demand for fresh produce home delivery and has stepped up to the plate to offer absolutely gorgeous veggies and awesome handmade goodies fresh from the farm and delivered straight to your door.  A box of this homegrown goodness would make the PERFECT Mother's Day gift for pretty much any mom!  Check out what we got in our Best of the Season Box and some other fun gift ideas from Farmer Hones Farm: 

Best of the Season Box

Depending upon the season, the farmer’s market delivery box may contain a mix of fresh lettuce and greens, a mix of root crop, potatoes, cruciferous, sweet potatoes, and the best micro greens and herbs. Seasonal favorites are added when available.  Products will vary based on the season and availability.    

You can choose the box size that works best for your family:
Small - Best for 1-2 people for approximately one week.
Medium - Best for 3-4 people for approximately one week.  

Here is a sampling of a typical box:

Mixed Micro Greens

Powerhouse micro greens packed full of vitamins and minerals!

Sorrel

Adds a sour element to salads that we love!

Assorted Edible Flower Blooms

So pretty and tasty to boot!

Radishes

Crisp, crunchy and bursting with mild spiciness!

Brussels Sprouts

Some of the prettiest sprouts we've seen!

Baby Kale Mix

Beautiful mix of Blue-Curled Scotch, Lacinato and Ragged Jack tender baby kale varieties...at least that's my best guess:)

Mesclun Mix Lettuce

A mix of fresh lettuces that are as beautiful as they are nutritious...including baby butter, romaine and leaf varieties...so, so pretty! 
 

Roots

Colorful carrots, beets and turnips with flavors ranging from earthy to sweet. Crispy, crunchy and delicious!

Potatoes 

Red, golden, purple and sweet potatoes fresh from the garden and ready to be turned into delicious potato dishes! 

What a fantastic assortment of veggies!  This lovely variety will help us keep our meal plan fresh and provide us with plenty of nutritious options for every meal of the day.  We are super impressed with the freshness and variety of all of these veggies! 

Farmer Jones Farms offers some really great self-care products that are made from fresh garden ingredients.  Check out a few of our favorites:

Flowerhouse Salve

The Flowerhouse Salve is a product of collaboration between a family farm and an Amish family of soap makers. The salve is made with beeswax from Farmer Jones Farm hives and lemon verbena from the fields around them. It’s a beautiful lightly aromatic lemon scented natural product for long cold winters. Flowerhouse Salve is very versatile. It can be used as a hand salve and a moisturizer. 

Blossom Bar Soap

The same beautiful flowers and herbs used in chef’s recipes are now available as part of the Blossom Bar Soap: marigold, bachelor buttons, fennel and celery. Hand made in Amish country, it uses the marigolds, bachelor buttons, fennel, and celery that’s grown with love on Farmer Jones Farm grounds.


Flowerhouse Black Tea Rutaceae

This is a Blended Black Tea made from High Mountain black tea blended with five types of lemon leaves and two types of lemon peel. Amplified with flowers and herbs from The Chef's Garden and The Culinary Vegetable Institute.   

Carrot Cake Marmalade

This delicious concoction is the product of a collaboration with Ohio-based Prospect Jam Company and if you are a fan of carrot cake, you are sure to love it as much as we do!


Whether Mom is looking to eat a healthier diet overall, or target a specific diet, eating farm-fresh vegetables will naturally deliver nutrition. By eating wholesome foods, Mother Nature will provide you and your family with vitamins and minerals, antioxidants, and fiber.  Plus, as a result of Farmer Jones Farm's regenerative farming practices, they have found that their products can contain up to 200 to 500% more mineral content than the USDA average!  You'd be hard-pressed to beat that!

Treat mom to the gift of beautiful and nutritious home grown garden-fresh produce and goodies from Farmer Jones Farm at The Chef's Garden this Mother's Day!
