UNCLE SASSY FARMS, LLC

Local - Fresh - Fun

Do I need to sign up for Emails?

No, you can see us at the Lander Valley Farmers Market in the summertime. But if you do sign up, you will receive weekly harvest and monthly share availability updates - you’ll have first dibs on freshness and variety.

How do I place an order?

If you don’t own a share, you can place an order by replying to the weekly harvest updates each week (sign up here). Or you can contact us during the week to see what is available. We may have some unsold product. We are willing to set aside an order for pick-up anytime.

How do I get it?

After placing your order, you can have your order delivered for $2 or you can pick it up at 415 S. 7th for free. Delivery within Lander city limits.

For shares, during the summer market season, you can pick them up at the Lander Valley Farmers Market each Saturday after 9am. For non-market season months, they can be picked up at Meadowlark Market each Tuesday after 10am.

Where do you sell?

The best way to purchase mushrooms and microgreens is to sign up for our email list. You will receive weekly updates on what varieties are available and when. You can also inquire about purchasing a monthly share. Uncle Sassy Farms tries to be at every Saturday Lander Valley Farmers Market throughout the summer. The Popo Agie Conservation District Garden Expo is another venue to find Uncle Sassy Farms products.

What is a microgreen?

Microgreens are immature vegetable species that are harvested once the first leaves (cotyledons) have developed and just before the true leaves come in. Microgreens are valued for their nutrition, flavor, and spunkiness. In 2014, the USDA published a study that found 5 times the essential vitamin concentration in microgreens as compared to their mature counterparts.

What is a specialty mushroom?

Specialty or “Gourmet” mushrooms differ from standard “button” mushrooms in shape, color, flavor and texture, which vary wildly. Ecologically speaking, button mushrooms and gourmet mushrooms are both saprophytic fungi, meaning they decompose material. Many gourmet mushrooms are primary decomposers, breaking down tree wood and other lignans; while button mushrooms primarily rely on previously digested material as a food source. Both are delicious and nutritious.

Special Orders?

Yes! We are willing to try new varieties, just ask. We may need time to experiment, so make sure to give us about 2-3 weeks lead time for microgreens and 4-6 weeks lead time for mushrooms.
