BURBICK FARMS @ THE FOUNTAIN
Welcome to BURBICK FARMS on the Web where you are invited to grow along with us as we impact local foodways via our love for nutrient rich, delicious foods, conversation, and agri-service. As our micro farm breathes through its evolutionary purposes, we join other food stewards in growing crops for our community, contributing to healing soils, and serving others called to this remarkably fulfilling work!
WE ARE LOCATED IN A COZY CORNER IN WALTERBORO, SOUTH CAROLINA
Nutrient Rich
GARLIC...Our Principle Crop
We love garlic not only for its broadly diverse flavor profile and medicinal properties, but also for its intriguing aesthetic and history. Here at BurBick Farms, we sow in late autumn and harvest when it’s time to harvest ~ never rushing, always watching and praying, ever ready to respectfully unearth our brilliant bulbs just at the right time.
Please consider our site a resource for staying apprised of Garlic happenings and crop availability at our farm. Join our mailing list here where you can subscribe to our quarterly newsletter, Brilliant Bulbs. Keep your ear to the ground for our annual micro-growers gathering featuring international taste testing and agriscience presentations.
