We picked blackberries this evening at Barefoot Farm here on the island. We love supporting our fellow farmers. The bushes are full as you can see, there’s plenty more available. We are including these berries in at least one dish in the menu for our Gullah Campfire Supper with Stories and Songs event tomorrow night. We’re excited about the great ingredients we have for this meal. Check our link in the bio for more information and tickets. #freshpicked #blackberries #locallygrown #gullahfarmers #gullahgeechee #eat #eatlocal #farmfresh #memorialday #decorationday (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPb6WKjBADS/?utm_medium=tumblr

As a farm using organic methods, we were pleased to see insect and disease control or preventative method that are approved for organic use included in the presentation. We were pleased to receive the instruction, socialize with fellow farmers, and network. As farmers we are always eager to learn more about agriculture and improve our methods so we can provide the best quality produce for ourselves and our community. #gullahfarmers #farmersoninstagram #veteranfarmer #agriculturepractices #agriculture #brassica #flameweeder #extensionservices #clemsonextension #1890Extension #vegetableproduction #farmers #womenfarmers (at Saint Helena Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/BneapcDlRZ4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bzagauhz7t87
