Updated: Jun 30, 2023

So much has happened at Vrdnt Farm this past year. When your farm is only a few years old (read a bit about our origin story here, page 41), the events of 1 whole year... especially a year like 2021 marked by a vacillating pandemic and an artic freeze... can truly frame the history of your businesses.


One of 2021's later developments was this... our farm blog! It may seem like a small thing, but for us it's an important step in the direction we want to grow- setting aside a bit of time and energy to better communicate with you, hopefully encourage you to nerd out a


bout agriculture, or maybe to get excited about kohlrabi. In case you're new here, we thought we'd share links to your favorite 6 blog posts of 2021, ranked in order of popularity based on your views. As always, thanks for reading. We're looking forward to a bright 2022 marked by literal tons of delicious veggies.

5. A Farmer's Pitch for Local Food


I don't know anyone who is opposed to this idea of local farms. It's maybe one of the most non-controversial ideas in this moment of polarization in our country. However, the reality is that less than 1% of food consumed in Austin is produced locally. On average, US produce travels 1,500 miles before reaching the end consumer. That's the exact distance from here to Washington DC. Most of us Texans chafe at the idea of laws coming from that far away, so why do we accept it as the status quo for our food?
