Lee and Wayne James,
a brother/sister team, farm 20 acres in Windsor and Santa Rosa in the
heart of the Sonoma County Wine Country just 70 miles north
of San Francisco. In conjunction with the Sonoma County Agricultural
Preservation and Open Space Distrct, 17 of those acres are
leased from the county in a ground breaking partnership. In
addition to growing a diversified market garden, they also
grow over 20 varieties of chiles and sweet peppers, more than 20 varieties of dried beans, and grow and mill their own corn meal. The produce
is sold through their CSA program, at
the Farm Stand and on Saturday
mornings at the San Francisco Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market.
Farming since 1979, enjoy a detailed HISTORY of how it all came to be. |
