Everything is organically grown.

We use no herbicide or fungicide, but occasionally we do use a few OMRI approved bio pesticides that you will find on every organic farm.

Shout out Brenda and Felicia from Lincoln University for stopping by the farm today. They do phenomenal work representing Extension services in Sikeston, Missouri. We were able to give them a tour and they left with some farm to table spinach and honey. If you've never had a tour of South Side Farms yet and would like to, just leave us a comment and we'll make it happen. Because what we do, we do for YOU!

πŸ₯• The Roots: Carrots, beets, radishes, and sweet salad turnips

We had a fantastic time hosting Prodig Leadership Academy today. They do an excellent job educating young minds and we were delighted they chose to spend a portion of their day with us. They even tried farm fresh spinach, turnips, kale and honey and loved it.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out today! ❀️

Our Brassica Pest Management Workshop was an absolute success, and we couldn't be more grateful for our incredible community. We truly hope you left the farm today as better growers and feel more educated and confident about using Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in your own gardens!

A massive, heartfelt thank you goes out to Lincoln University, Dr. Anitha Chitturi, and her amazing IPM staff. We are so incredibly appreciative of the time, deep expertise, real-world tools, and hands-on guidance they shared with us today. We are so lucky to have partners like them helping us grow! πŸ“‹πŸ›

One of the highlights of the day was hearing from you all. Based on our conversations today, we talked about offering a Canning Workshop so you can learn exactly how to better preserve what you grow. Be on the lookout for that in the future! πŸ…πŸ§…

Don't forget to come see us for our 24th market of the season this Wednesday from 11a to 2p. 🧺πŸ₯• This upcoming market officially ties the total number of markets we offered all of last year, and the best part is, we aren't even done yet!

Thank you all again for learning, growing, and spending your day with us.

Let's Keep Growing Together, Cape Girardeau! 🌱

We are just THREE days away from our on-site pest management workshop at South Side Farms! 🚨

And since "what we do, we do for you," registration is somehow still open. We have spared absolutely no expense for this event. We have officially transformed our elaborate, highly industrial farm facilities into a premier, 5-star luxury resort experience. πŸ’…

Forget sitting on five-gallon buckets or getting dirt on your shoesβ€”we are talking peak sophistication. We are talking fine Italian folding chairs, people. Your grab-n-go artisanal lunchβ€”though you are heavily encouraged to focus way more on the grab-n-go part than the artisanal partβ€”will be served right alongside the scenic, ambient aromas of real working tractors. 🍽️🚜

In between your luxury spa treatments, Lincoln University State Extension Specialist Dr. Anitha Chitturi will teach you actual, real-world techniques to stop bugs from eating your crops. We’re even doing high-end, experiential hands-on pest identification directly in the dirt.

Feel free to bring your premium questions, exclusive leaf samples, VIP pictures of bug damage, or just your curiosity.

β€’ When: Monday, October 26th | 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM

β€’ Where: 900 S. West End Blvd, Cape Girardeau, MO 63703

β€’ The Five-Star Menu Includes Protection For Your:
β€’ Collards πŸ₯¬
β€’ Cabbage πŸ₯¬
β€’ Cauliflower πŸ₯¦
β€’ Mustard greens πŸ₯¬
β€’ Broccoli πŸ₯¦
β€’ Kale πŸ₯¬
β€’ ...and more!

The workshop is entirely FREE, but our elite VIP lounge (the washing and produce packing area) has limited space. Click the link below to claim your exclusive, ultra-luxury pass before they're gone! πŸ‘‡πŸ“‹

Alright, jokes asideβ€”all we can really promise though is a great workshop and a free lunch lol. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
