Hmong Vaj Farms is located in Kansas City, Kansas just off I- 70. They have been farming this property since 2011 and take advantage of every inch. Over the years, they have added more cut flowers and some peach trees, which started to produce a little more this year. Many of the items they grow are finished for the year since it is late in the summer. Can you believe it is the first day of fall? 




 As I walked through their fields, I could see that they had recently replanted items for the fall since they continue to come to the market into November if we do not have a heavy frost before then. There was an abundance of eggplant, okra, peppers, squash and long beans and a variety of flowers. You will see greenhouse tomatoes, watermelon and pumpkins in Chiong’s stalls on the weekends, these are grown locally and are purchased at the Central Missouri Produce Auction in Versailles, MO or the 4 County Produce Auction in Windsor, MO. Hmong Vaj Farms is contracted for four stalls at the Saturday and Sunday farmers market.  Two of these stalls, each day, are in the markets supplement category which means beside the produce they grow they can supplement up to 50% of the produce sold in that stall as long as it was harvested within a 500 miles of the City Market. You will find Hmong Vaj Farms located in stalls 90, 91,108 and109 on Saturdays and stalls 70, 71, 90 and 91 on Sundays.
