Last Saturday I went to the Organic Farmers Market to pick up a steak for our meetup. I also picked up some vegetables for salads and so forth to eat during the week. On this trip I noticed La Ferme Rosée had locally grown globe artichokes. Robert, the owner, assured me they were in fact from his farm and he grew them in the field (as opposed to a greenhouse). I had always thought of artichokes as native to southern climates however I thought I'd pick one up and give it a try. I had it for dinner on Saturday night and it had a very fresh delicate flavour to it - much tastier than any imported artichoke I have ever had. If Robert continues to grow them he has my business.

So, NU5655, what you're saying is that they were quick with a refund and you didn't have to hound them for it, right. Sounds like good people to do business with.

We had several deliveries from Bryson Farms. We very much believe in organic produce, as well the concept. The quality was fine but we found them a bit pricey.

One thing we think others should know is that they charged us in advance for deliveries, and it took two or three weeks and two e-mails to obtain a refund when we decided to no longer get vege-tables from them.
