Leigh at the top of our farm, the summit of High Point Mountain
A Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm, providing fresh, subscription vegetables and flowers grown on our farm without chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers. Our vegetables and flowers are chemical and gmo free.
We are sold out for the 2008 season.

Locally grown vegetables picked in the morning and delivered to the Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church, Fairfax, Prince William and Washington DC communities in the afternoon.
The Bates/Hauter family has grown vegetables, berries and raised honey bees on their farm in the Bull Run Mountains since the 1960's. In the time our family has worked this land, no chemical fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides have been used.
2008 will be our 14th year of experience managing a vegetable share program. Each year our program has improved and this coming year promises to be no exception.
Year in and year out, our CSA has a proven record of successfully providing a diverse variety of vegetables, herbs and flowers.
Despite the unpredicable weather over the past decade our vegetables ( record setting drought in 2002 and again in 2007, record setting wet and chilly summer of 2003 and a somewhat chilly -for Virginia- but otherwise great season in 2004 and again in 2006) have thrived.
Our fields are irrigated by a large artesian spring that flows out of the side of Highpoint Mountain in the Bull Run Mountain Ridge.
