MEET YOUR FARMERS AND RANCHERS
I know personally, or have come to know based on personal
referrals, all of the producers here at Eden's. Here is your chance to get to meet
them before you come out and shop from them. I think you'll find them all
enchanting, warm, sincere and hard working folks who have you and your family's
best health in mind.
All of these farmers/ranchers/producers may not be able to
attend every market due to other commitments. Many offer the opportunity for you
to pre-order items from them (contact them directly). This is not only a good way to assure you're
favorite cut of steak or eggs will be waiting for you, but a show of your support
that they'll have some product sold.
Most of our farms and ranches are within less than 100 miles
of our farm in Balch Springs, but a few come further to help fill the void in
the metroplex of "clean" farms growing produce. Texas Olive Ranch
Olive Oil, Coyote Coffee, Texas Honey bee Guild Honey and a few other local
value added products are sold through Eden's Organic Garden Center unless actual
representatives are available on Market Day.

Due to the nature of growing with the seasons, we
don't always know for sure who will show up, or
what they'll have, but here
are our regulars and their typical offerings.
You can contact them directly to see what they'll
have and/or if they're coming this week;
Eden's Garden CSA Farm -
Balch Springs, TX -
Host farm, founded, owned and operated by Marie Tedei.
Seasonal produce grown like great grandma
did; yard eggs; baked and other goodies
when time and as the TX Cottage
Food law allows.
Bar-M-Ranch -
Hubbard, TX - USDA inspected grass
fed beef. Black Angus cattle raised on
organic pasture, humanely treated and
respectfully cared for. Also featuring,
meat rubs/seasonings.
Texas Olive Ranch -
Carrizo Springs, TX -
Texas grown
and produced olive oil and balsamic
vinegar.
With 40,000 olive trees located south of
Carrizo Springs, Texas Olive Ranch is the premier producer of Texas grown olive
oil. They harvest mechanically and *cold press their olives in their own
mills producing the highest quality *extra virgin olive oil.
Speaking with Jim Henry the owner of TOR, their
future plans are to apply for USDA Organic certification next year. We are very
excited to offer TOR quality olive oils and balsamic vinegars to our Market Day
customers! *Cold pressed
means "that the oil was not heated over a certain temperature (usually 80
degrees Fahrenheit) during processing, thus retaining more nutrients and
undergoing less degradation. (source; wikipedia) *Oil was produced by the use of physical means
and no chemical treatment.
D's Sourdough Baked Goods - Balch Springs, TX
