Click here to support Full Quiver Farms Fire Fund by Michael Sams

https://www.gofundme.com/fullquiverfarms

gofundme.com On Sept. 18 a fire started in a stack of straw beside our hay barn. I saw it immediately and called 911. But with a strong wind blowing and dry straw it spread quickly. Within minutes the roof collasped and the barn was gone. Two tractors, 4 vehicles, mowers, tools, alfalfa hay for the winter...

This week we wanted to highlight one of our favorite Oak Cliff foundations, the 2000 Roses Foundation.

Every week, Urban Acres donates a portion of its leftover produce shares to Kelly Wiley of 2000 Roses Foundations. Kelly picks up the produce shares on her day off and delivers them to Dallas-area non profits such as Hillcrest House, CitySquare, and Kelly's own, The Rose Garden - where shares help to feed those in need.

To learn more about the folks at 2000 Roses Foundation as well as their mission to assist women re-entering society after incarceration, visit: http://2000roses.org and if you'd like to support Kelly and her organization as they help to feed the needy in Dallas, you can donate here: http://www.gofundme.com/m1t754

Decoding the Terms: Cage Free, Free Range & Pasture Raised Eggs - Living Homegrown

Do you know the difference between "Cage Free," "Free Range" & "Pasture Raised" eggs? Living Homegrown provides a simple breakdown of the types of eggs out there and explains why Pasture Raised eggs (like those offered at Urban Acres) are the way to go for sustainable, healthy eating.

livinghomegrown.com You’ve seen the egg cartons in the grocery store: “Cage Free!” and “Free Range!”. And the newest one to hit the market “Vegetarian Raised!” Well, you might be surprised to learn that those terms do NOT even remotely mean what you think they mean. With the exception of “Pasture Raised”, most of the…

We're sad to announce that we're closing the doors of our urban farmstead and café at 1605 N. Beckley Ave. in Oak Cliff. The change will go into effect August 17, 2015. Our organic CSA produce share program will continue to grow and expand, supporting local farmers through 17 DFW pickup locations. Our CSA no longer requires a membership and now includes grass-fed meats and pasture-raised eggs in addition to local and organic produce.

Please visit our blog for a few of our favorite images from the life of the farmstead, featuring just a few of the many, many people who have made it a special place.
