Rains not slowing down IL specialty grower

The rainy spring hasn’t slowed down the season for an eastern Illinois specialty grower.

John Williams, farm manager at Sola Gratia farm in Champaign, says the season is well underway.

“We are quite busy getting our regular accoutrement of veggies in the ground.”  He says, “Some of our early plantings like that going in our fields.  We’ve been switching our high tunnels over to cherry tomatoes, so they’re ready to go here in probably a month and a half or so.” 

Williams tells Brownfield the farm partners with numerous agencies to ensure the produce reaches those in need.
