One Chef + One Farmer = One Vision Farms
Hi PEI Foodies, Roberta here. I want you to meet two of my many cousins from eastern PEI, Belfast to be specific, Chef Kyle Panton and Farmer Curtis Penny. Kyle and Curtis got together a couple of years ago with a shared vision of bringing local quality produce from seed, to the soil, to the table and came up with One Vision Farms. These are two very hard working young lads with a true passion and interest in where Islanders are getting their produce.
While a joint effort in the planting, cultivation and harvesting of their produce, they each bring a specific area of interest to their adventure. Curtis prefers to be behind the scenes working the land and cultivating the crops to ensure the best quality produce they can grow, and Chef Kyle brings his knowledge of how to prepare the produce into beautiful dishes. Crops include anything from lettuce, herbs and peppers to carrots, potatoes, turnips and a wide variety in between. They grow and sell quality, sustainable produce both on the Penny’s family farm and Kyle’s greenhouse.
One Vision Farms Weekly Vegetable Boxes!
Every Tuesday during the growing season, One Vision Farms creates vegetable boxes for their growing list of customers. It is truly a surprise every week to see what it will contain ~ so dinner on Tuesdays is always a surprise as well! The popular question in our house on Tuesdays then becomes: what can we do with our vegetables this week? They help us out with the answer by including some recipes specific to the produce received that week. Thanks boys! Along with my co-owner of TechnoMedia, Blair Sweeney, we are thrilled to support Kyle and Curtis in their adventure and to see what each week holds.
If you are interested in ordering a vegetable box of your very own for the 2016 season or to receive more information, please contact One Vision Farms at onevisionfarms@hotmail.com.
Best of luck in your 2016 growing season and looking forward to seeing great things from One Vision Farms!
