“Farming is more than just a way to make a living; it’s my sanctuary. After years in the Navy and overcoming life’s challenges, I’ve found purpose in the soil of my 106 acres. Each field holds the promise of a sustainable future, and with every moment spent with my animals, I feel a deep sense of hope. Collaborating with Love Farms amplifies that hope, as we strive to make farm-to-table eating accessible for all. Together, we can heal our broken food system, one harvest at a time.”

Oyster Week is here, and Thursday night is the main event. 🦪🍽️
We’ll start with a walk through tour of our farm with a welcome cocktail in hand. Then everyone heads back into the Harvest Room, where the long tables are set for an intimate, family-style dinner. Our Executive Chef joins you in the dining room to talk through the story behind each course.
By dessert, you’re passing plates and trading stories with people you met an hour ago.
On the table: oysters hot and cold, a creamy oyster stew with a giant oyster cracker, char-grilled oysters in lobster butter, roasted duck with oyster sauce, and a chocolate dessert calbehindsters and Pearls. Optional wine pairings to match.
Join us this Thursday, October 8
$100 per person | Reservations required

Harvest Dinner nights are special here at Love Farms. The vision is to fill the space not only with great people, but with good food, new conversations, shared stories, and a little more connection around the table.🍽️🧡
Our Harvest Dinners are designed to slow things down and bring people closer to the food we’re growing, the people we’re sharing it with, and the place we call home. Select Thursdays, we kick things off with a farm tour + welcome cocktail before gathering around the table for a family-style tasting dinner inspired by that week’s harvest.
Come hungry, come curious, bring your people—or come make some new ones.
Harvest Dinners continue through October 22, each with a different harvest theme. 🌾

🐝 Buzzing on the Farm: Bees, Blooms & Honey Fest! 🌻
Join our Farm Manager Jeremy down by the hives to talk about one of our hardest-working teams! While our bees aren’t making honey quite yet, their role as powerhouse pollinators is vital for keeping our crops and the local ecosystem thriving.
🌸Speaking of blooms, our new dahlias and sunflowers have officially popped up! You’ll find them as single-variety bunches in our market, and because the petals are edible, Chef Kevin and the culinary team may be using them for restaurant table decor and select dishes this fall.
