To the left of the gravel road entrance to the Freshwater Farms Reserve 74 acres of marshland, working pastures and trails Kneeland Glen Farm Stand s little shop is nearly camouflaged by the vines and shrubbery growing up to its green rooftop. The entrance, too, is obscured by flowering branches on one side and a stall of free items clothes, shoes, books and VHS tapes on the other. Inside, the tables and shelves are packed with sourdough bread, herbal tinctures and soaps, homey pies and jams, cookies and bushels of dry beans. The stock is provided by some 30 local producers, some of them farms, others cottage food businesses run out of home kitchens. Some of the produce is grown just outside in a handful of garden beds.

The Kneeland Glen Farm Stand, a beloved community resource for fresh produce and other locally made goods, located just west of Three Corners Market, may close permanently at the end of the month after the stand’s owner received an eviction letter from the Northcoast Regional Land Trust yesterday.
Northcoast Regional Land Trust Executive Director Dan Ehresman told the
Outpost that the non-profit’s board of directors unanimously agreed to evict the stand’s owner and operator, Kathy Mullen, after she repeatedly violated her lease agreement. The decision was announced this morning in a statement issued by the NRLT.

A homeowner, who did not want to interview on camera, told us he woke up to noise, thinking it was an animal knocking on the glass door to his lanai and walked out to find a man with a bloody gash on his face on the other side trying to get in. He and his fellow neighbors were shocked to learn the man accused of doing it lived a few houses down from them.
