Cathy Jones and Mike Perry have been farming in northern Chatham County since 1990. They have always farmed organically but they no longer get their farm certified. Sustainable practices such as cover crops, crop rotation, and biodiversity help keep pests and diseases in check and enhance crop quality.

You can support Perry-winkle Farm by shopping at the following farmers’ markets from March-December:

• Fearrington Farmers’ Market:
  Tuesdays, 4:00 p.m. til early evening in Fearrington Village
• Carrboro Farmers’ Market:
  Saturdays, 7:00 a.m. til noon and Wednesdays, 3:30-6:30 p.m. in Carrboro
