Lovely home-grown flowers dance in the breeze .
Rows and rows of succulent veggies surround the barn and farmhouse out of which things like fresh strawberries and green onions are sold .
Also outside is a playground with fun rides and a sandbox full of toys .
Mark and Sarah Burnett have been working out of the farm for years , and in an interview with SEKY magazine ,
Mark Burnett gave a long list of all the scrumptious and locally sourced veggies that they grow .
“ We basically grow anything that can be grown in a local home garden ” he said .
While he stressed that “ basically everything ” was hyperbolic , the armlong list he gave certainly seemed like it included basically everything .
In-season strawberries and green onions were obviously included , but potatoes , green beans , kale , all available types of tomatoes including cherry tomatoes , sweet corn , sweet potatoes , okra , eggplants , sugar beats , sugar snap peas , and cabbage were all plants that the Burnetts grew throughout the year .
