Da Produce

Da Eplegaarden--farm direct-- advantages.

• quality
• freshness - plukked fresh by you or us
• choice and selection - over 100 varieties of apples, tiny to huge pumpkins, many types of squash and popcorn

· low farm prices ( e.g. apples are not $2.00 or $3.00 a pound)

· fun and enjoyment (real live experience)

· different - we're slow, old fashioned

· access (not just one day a week)

· close

· total information on your food

· local Fitchburg and Dane County grower (know your source)

· environmental concern (We live on our own soil, breath our air, and drink our own water. They better be safe and permanent!)

· Virtual reality? We’re not! We are reality!
