I had the Best time at The Atlanta Farm. Book Launch Signing with Mrs Margarett Wilson and Guest Cerlebity Star Bobby Valentino and Family. They are Awesome People 👌

John Sheffield

Customer

They grow most of the produce they sell, so many options are limited by season, but you can't get much fresher. The quality of the greens has been unsurpassed. More often than not, the guy goes out into the field to pick what I am buying just before I pay for it.
