Savant, Dashi and Kendrick’s on the regular ARTfarm delivery route!

We love to grow fresh food for creative chefs almost as much as we love to supply our family and farmstand customers. We love it when these guys call us up asking about new crops or telling us what amazing dish they are going to make using our stuff. Or just to harass Luca and try to get him to play basketball.

Two chefs making pirate faces hold up bunches of fresh green herbs from ARTfarm at Savant Restaurant in Christiansted, St. Croix USVI.
The ‘double D’ chefs of Savant Restaurant (Dreads and Daryl) get sassy with some fresh herbs from ARTfarm. Jill and Ashley at Dashi, and Dave over at Kendrick’s also took on some ARTfarm produce Wednesday afternoon. Eat out in Christiansted this week and celebrate: the blessed ending of a lengthy campaign season, or butterfly season, or just awesome food!

It’s still early in the season, but Savant, Kendrick’s and Dashi are already on the ARTfarm Christiansted delivery route, and as the season continues and the heirloom tomatoes come in their orders will undoubtedly get heavier! Thanks for the support!!

It’s butterfly season! If you were a butterfly, wouldn’t you want to land right here? A bright red cosmo flower enjoys some early morning sunlight at ARTfarm.
