Our goals are to provide 1) the freshest, highest-quality food to our neighbors and 2) a place where you and your family can experience the rhythms of farm life just 8 miles east of downtown Austin, Texas.At our historic intown working farm we raise vegetables and animals using sustainable methods. No synthetic pesticides or herbicides ever.
We sell our produce at our farm stand, to CSA members, to families with WIC vouchers and to others including: stores like Wheatsville, restaurants like the Four Seasons, caterers like Dishalicious, and delivery services like Greenling. Buy your food where it grows! All local, all the time!
Our farm -- 1/4 mile from the intersection of Decker Lane and FM 969-- is just 8 miles east of downtown Austin. Tours of crops and livestock are given every Saturday at noon ($5 per person ). Learn more about us here.
Our CSA members, like the one quoted here, are at the heart of our operation:
Thanks so much for all of your hard work during this CSA season...The CSA is truly a life-changing experience and it is fulfilling on so many levels. We are all incredibly grateful for all of the efforts that you guys put into making this happen.
--Chris Price, Green Gate Farms CSA member
*We no longer farm at the Center for Maximum Potential Building Systems, around the corner from where we live, because we can’t afford paying for water and wastewater-- how crazy is that? -- at two locations. Tell your representatives that farmers should receive an agricultural rate for water and not be forced to pay for wastewater services they don’t use!
