Delvin Farms 2003

Hank and Cindy Delvin have been growing vegetables commercially for over 30 years. Producing quality vegetables and providing our customers with safe and nutritious food products has always been our philosophy. We have always felt that using sustainable agricultural practices such as conservation tillage, erosion control, crop rotations and reduced chemical inputs has aided us in protecting our natural resources. Though we have practiced sustainable agriculture for many years, we felt the consumer wanted to be certain of the means by which their food is produced.

We are Certified Organic producers. We provide local organic markets in the Nashville area with high quality produce that consumers expect. Over the years, friends, family and neighbors, who have come directly to our home for fresh produce have expressed delight in the freshness and flavor of the vegetables. It was through their encouragement that we decided to provide more people with the opportunity to obtain freshly harvested organically grown produce.

Our love of the land and of what we do has led us into the area of Community Supported Agriculture. People usually join a CSA project for fresh, ripe, and local foods (most store-bought vegetables are picked green and ripen in transit to the store shelf). With access to a farm, the bounty and wonders of nature dazzle many. People start eating vegetables they never liked before because they had never tasted them vine-ripened and chemical-free. By providing this service, consumers can be certain, through direct contact and knowing their grower, that their food is produced in the safest of environments.
