Ted's Last Stand Farm & Gardens

...is a sustainable small farm located near Charlottesville, Virginia, owned and operated by Michael Levatino and Audrey Blecha.  We grow and create fresh cut, field-grown flowers, vegetables, eggs, honey and handmade jewelry and crafts for sale directly or at local farmers markets.  We use no harmful chemical pesticides or herbicides in the growing process, and we use drip irrigation to conserve water.  We're proud to be a vegetarian farm that does not breed farm animals, but we do have a few chickens for their eggs, and donkeys and llamas for our special homemade compost.

"The actual flower is the plant's highest fulfillment, and are not here exclusively for herbaria, county floras and plant geography: they are here first of all for delight."
