ARTfarmers Making Art: Exhibit Thursday November 18th through December, Café Christine

Farm news: We have been busy over the past few months getting the approaching season ramped up with the seeding of much vegetable life. It has still been dry on the south shore. There will be a salad-greens-and-tings pop-up announced later today for pre-holiday next week, and we plan to reopen for pre-orders. Still working on our exciting WCK grant project!

And speaking of watching things grow, our cute little farmer baby is now tall as her mom and has created an art exhibit to charm, amaze and delight you. Please come out, bring a friend, and see her work at Café Christine in Christiansted. It will be up from November 18th (Art Thursday) through the December holidays. The Café is open for lunch Tuesday through Friday 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM, reservations recommended – (340) 713-1500.
