It’s that time of year when we start preparing for the season ahead…

🥬Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) helps small farms by providing crucial upfront support. When you buy a share before the season begins, you help us cover early costs and reduce risk. In return, you’ll enjoy fresh, local food each week. It’s a system that keeps small farms growing and communities connected.

👀Check out the Produce Subscription page on our website to see what last year’s CSA looked like. This year, we’ve split the CSA into two seasons—and you can sign up for both now! If you’re worried about using a full share every week, consider splitting with a friend. Two pick up date options. Two pick up location options. Keep’s it simple Madtown/Nashville.

🍓This year we have our delicious strawberries planted, so we should have them in the spring! I’m so excited 🙌

🤨DM me with any questions you may have. Please keep in mind that I’ll be offline tonight through Sunday morning, so please be patient with responses.

My has 2025 flown by… even though at moments it felt like it would never be done. Time is a funny thing.

Now in this time of reflection and planning we are preparing for the future… Future seedlings. Future crops. Future projects. Future classes. Future growth on the farm.

Keep up to date with new happenings as we launch in to 2026 with our CSA season (a bit different than last year), more cooking classes at the farm, and our expanded Explorer Morning (previously Tot Morning).

Farm to Table Cooking Class and Dinner. It was definitely a night to remember. The weather was beautiful and the farm peaceful.

We learned creative and new ways to cook farm fresh foods from our farm. Roasted okra, smash potatoes, and a light and beautiful salad with our greens, radishes, and turnips, plus a pear from . Roasted broccolini from and spatchcock chicken from . So local. So fresh. So creative.

Thank you for teaching us how to prepare these foods and for a relaxing evening building community.

An unexpected gift. These tomatoes had been cast off and left for dead. They struggled through the month of August. My field tomatoes tanked this year. It was NOT a tomato summer. It was a summer of failures.

But these little guys kept getting watered and started bouncing back. They have been such a blessing to the farm, to our kiddos who get to pick them, to our and CSA members who get to enjoy them.

And it’s October and they’re still producing. It almost feels like a miracle! It probably is.

Sweet. Juicy. Such Joy!

Strawberries are being planted on this beautiful overcast morning! Gardening class started the planting off like pros! Rest of the planting will happen here shortly followed by the rest of the irrigation line being installed. Lastly, we’ll follow this up with laying down a w**d barrier that sandwiches the strawberry plants. It’s a new method I haven’t tried before. After the super wet spring of 2024 and berries sitting in the water that pooled in the beds, I’m trying this method out, especially since 2025 spring was even more wet than the previous! Also, hoping this will make it easier to harvest since the walkways are significantly wider than previous years.

Hope

Audrey Hepburn once said “To plant a seed is to believe in tomorrow.” When I first heard this I very flippantly thought, “oh yeah, of course!” And oh, that’s so very deep, which it is on so many levels… But after the growing season I’ve been blessed to experience this year, I truly feel the meaning at its simplest meaning. To plant a seed means that we’re NOT giving up, that even though we may have failed, we’re NOT failures (just perpetually learning 😆), and that IF we want to harvest a crop a seed MUST be planted.

ALRIGHT… I’m done being all philosophical and will get back to work. Remember if you want to have a fall/winter garden, it’s NOT too late, so get on growing and if you’re not sure where to start, has a great growers library online that y’all can access for tips and tricks for growing year-round. Happy growing!

Rooted in God, Growing for Good

The Madison Farm is tucked away in Neelys Bend of Madison, just north of Nashville. The Madison Farm is a reboot of the original that was founded in 1904 on 440 acres that was Madison College, and is today Madison Academy.

Shannon and Jenni are the Farm Managers of The Madison Farm; in collaboration with two students, Kendra and Patrick, are spearheading this agriculture revolution for our schools and community.

The purpose of The Madison Farm is to revolutionize holistic learning and service through year-round biointensive farming. We plan to do this by empowering people to live a life of intention by integrating education with agriculture. It is our goal to develop practical skills in students, while enhancing the Madison area by providing opportunities for healthy-living education, community outreach, and sustainable initiatives. We are Rooted in God and Growing for Good.
