Description

Dennison's Family Farm
1/2 bushel box well filled with a wide variety of whatever is ripe that week. It changes over the season. We do most of our communication by e-mail, and will list what's in your farm box each week on our web site. Your farm box will contain "normal" items, such as tomatoes, squash, and peppers, both hot and mild. We also try to have something "different", such as a Tigger melon or Joi Choi. No matter what the vegetable, everyone says that our tastes the best they've ever had. Come join us, be brave, play with your food.

In 1960, Don and Genora Dennison, with their children, Wayve (that's me) and Frank, moved from the family farm in Ohio to "The Switch", as it was locally known, in Elora, TN, just 30 miles north of Huntsville, Al. This is a historic farm that even has its own ghost story. 2010 marks the Golden Jubilee of Dennison's Family Farm, and the 60th wedding anniversary of Don and Genora! They have spent the last 50 years trying to be good stewards of the soil and the wildlife on it. About half of our land is in managed timberland, some in row crops, some resting, and we plant over 100 acres of fruits and vegetables.
