The Latest from our Blog

As cucumbers are arriving on the farm, we thought we’d share two favorite cucumber recipes!

This is a refreshing summertime salad featuring eggplant. Serve with a thick crusty bread or pita bread to soak up the delicious dressing.

Eggplants are being harvested now at the farm! Want to make them into a tasty recipe? Baba Ghanoush is a traditional Mediterranean dip. It is heart healthy and a great component in a Mediterranean diet.

Grant from Bank of America helps Raleigh City Farm further the impact of its mission by sustaining our Pay-What-You-Can Farmstand.

Raleigh City Farm fresh greens (kale, turnip, kohlrabi, broccoli, mustard, collards, Swiss chard, etc.) are, well, GLORIOUS nature-packaged health. Why not take advantage of their great flavor and nutrients even after the growing season? Freeze them. Here’s how…

Kohlrabi is not a root or a tuber but a swollen stem. They taste like broccoli stems but milder. Delicious raw or cooked, they're a great potato replacement or mix them with your tubers (yams, sweet potatoes, etc) for added nutrition. Like turnips, you can enjoy the greens too. This week, we have a truly delicious Kohlrabi recipe!

We are thrilled and honored to be the recipient of this year’s Raleigh Environmental Stewardship Award (RESA) from the City of Raleigh for demonstrating environmental leadership and recognizing the continuity of the environment, economics, and equity.

My family often walks through the farm on Saturday mornings after eating at Yellow Dog. It means a lot to us to be able to talk to our daughter about the plants and the work that goes into cultivating them.
