At Hines Valley Farm I grow vegetables of superb taste; sell locally to keep our produce fresh; and farm according to USDA organic rules in order to minimize environmental harm.
Please visit and shop the Market Square Farmers Market May-December at Market Square in downtown Knoxville (location temporarily changed-see below).

The 2020 Market Square Farmers Market is currently open 9-1 at Mary Costa Plaza, 500 Howard Baker Jr. Avenue, Knoxville- http://maps.managemymarket.com/4007

For 24 October I have curly, red, and lacinato kales; collards; green beans; lettuce-greenleaf, red leaf, butterheads, and romaine; eggplant--green and purple; garlic; potatoes-Kennebec, Yukon gold, Desiree; bok choi; tat soi; beets; carrots; cilantro; green, savoy, and napa cabbage; "Asian broccoli;" white (Japanese) and red turnips; limited broccoli and fennel; and orange, purple, and white(Murasaki)-fleshed sweet potatoes.
After nine years, I have found an orange sweet potato I like--one tasty at digging--Bayou Belle.

I decided against Venmo(Paypal) since they charge business accounts 2.9% plus $.30 per transaction. This would be just under 8% for a $6 order.
I am sold out of CSA shares for 2020.
You may also find Hines Valley Farm produce at Three Rivers Market as well as on the menu of The Plaid Apron in Sequoyah Hills and Northshore Brasserie in west Knoxville.

My USDA organic status is verified by independent inspection under USDA supervision. Some farmers operate under the "certified naturally grown" standard similar to USDA organic: this regime is policed by member growers. Please see organic farming for details.
