Vegetable Gleaning Event participants
October 20, 2011
The Decker Family came out today with intentions of pumpkin harvesting and playground fun. Dad came too! Mom listened to the details of the gleaning event, and decided that sure was a good deal, headed out to the vegetable field and discovered how much fun she and her family were having, then she asked if they could come back tomorrow! Here's their first go at vegetable harvesting; not bad at all, boys!
UPDATE: NO GLEANING NEEDED ON FRIDAY: REGULAR ADMISSION POLICY WILL BE IN EFFECT

Flower Girls
October 16, 2011
It's been awhile since I've taken a photo of such nice girls having fun in nature. These girls weren't far behind their parents when I asked if I could capture their harvest for the webpage. Hope these flowers remind you this week of your time on this beautiful fall day in KC.
Thanks for coming out! (oh, and the royalties? We'll have to talk to your agent, I guess?)

Somebody topped Andrew today!
September 26, 2011
Donna of Container Creations hunted, harvested and hauled in all five of these wheelbarrows today. (Okay, so that would've been quite an impressive feat! She had some help from us farmhands at the end.) Somebody's doorstep is the intended location for most of these. It was nearly 600 lbs. of pumpkins. What a dame! If you want the big ones, don't wait too long before you come to harvest. Open Mon-Fri, Noon to 6 pm; Sat and Sun, 9 am to 6 pm.
Cider Slushies in a pumpkin sipper
September 24, 2011
Evidently this drink is so delicious that you don't put it down even if you're getting your picture taken. Aurora said "Cheese" with the straw still stuck between her teeth! Glad you had a good day here, Aurora!

Hanging out with the group of farming kids
Visit to Boys Grow
August 11, 2010
We finally had a chance when both our and Boys Grow schedules met up, so we took a drive out to KCK to take a look at their operation and hand over the check that our customers in July made possible during our blow out benefit. These boys along with the help of two mentors planted, tended and are now harvesting tomatoes, peppers, herbs and even sweet corn! They hope to manufacture a Boys Grow line of salsa and learn to market the product. Click here to see the NBC action News piece.
Keep up the good work, boys!

The secret is out…Johnson's is the place for quality, selection, service and price!
The Johnson Family has been in the farming business for over thirty years, and we’re excited about sharing the beauty of our 140 acre farm with you. For Fall 2010, we will be presenting a plentiful harvest from 60 acres of pumpkins and decorative produce, as well as hardy mums. We are a greenhouse in the spring, a summer produce purveyor in the summer and a pumpkin patch in the fall. We’re proud of our family farm and want to share our enthusiasm with you. The Johnson Farm provides your family an opportunity to escape to the country and take pleasure in nature’s bounty. We look forward to seeing you time and time again.
