Honey CSA pick-up


Sergi Farm
34 Glenn Road, Belmont MA 02478

Today I got to venture out to Sergi Farm in Belmont to pick up my honey share from Joan Teebagy of Little Red Truck Farm. Hooray! On the way there, I thought Google Maps had let me down--there I was in the middle of a Belmont neighborhood, looking for the correct street number for the farm. This can't be right, can it? All of a sudden--FARM! It was pretty amazing how it was nestled in amongst all that suburban asphalt. It ended up taking a while to get there, and I was ridiculously late for work, so I only had a few minutes to look around. However, I will make a point of going back when I can spend more time. I did get to speak with Joan about her bees, check out some of the hives, and to see an enormous pumpkin that she had grown (sadly, it had rotted out so it had to be tossed on the compost). And, I am happy to report, the honey is delicious!

I really hope she does this again next year...
