Lake Clarke Shores woman checks off private farm tour from bucket list

Husband John pushes Susan into the van
for ride to Green Cay.
Susan Spencer-Wendel didn't know a private farm tour would be part of her bucket list, until Nancy Roe offered one.

Nancy, who runs Green Cay Farm west of Boynton Beach, operates the farm through the community supported agriculture program. She sells subscriptions "shares" to her farm, and in return, subscribers receive produce that she and her crew grow. 

One weekend each February, she opens Green Cay to her subscribers and their friends to see how they grow the vegetables and the innovative methods used to control pests and provide water to the crops.

Nancy graciously offered the private farm tour as an option when I asked whether the farm tour was wheelchair-accessible.
