Hi, and welcome to Kiss-im-mee’s Green Place for Natural and Organic Vegetables, LLC. Kiss-im-mee’s Green Place (KGP) wants to be your one stop shop for fresh, vine ripened, natural and beyond organic vegetables in Central Florida. The goal of our natural and beyond organic vertical growing farm is to provide the public with the lowest priced, freshest, tastiest, most delicious and nutritious, vine-ripened produce that they desire to live a long, healthy life. We grow a variety of fresh, tasty vegetables and herbs. Our vegetables are harvested each morning, so that they are at the peak of their maturity and flavor. This will also enable your vegetables to have a longer shelf life after you take them home.
We are growing natural and beyond organic because of the lack of availability and affordability for vine-ripened, fresh picked and locally grown produce. At the present time, even if you purchase natural and organic vegetables at your local supermarkets, more than likely it is being shipped from California or Mexico. No matter where it originates, the cost of packing, cooling, shipping and distributing this produce from such a distance is why the prices are so high. So, if your produce is being shipped so far, more than likely your “fresh” vegetables are at least one week old and have lost a lot of the nutritional value that they had when first picked.
KGP is not a U-Pick, but our customers will see how their vegetables are grown and watch a farm operate on a daily basis. All produce for sale will be displayed at our vegetable stand. You will see vegetables in all stages of their life cycle, but rest assured, only the ripest, most tastiest vegetables will be picked for you to purchase.
WE ACCEPT CASH AND CHECKS ONLY. We do not deliver.
