Cole Creek Farm Vegetables is a Teen Owned & Operated Home Grown Farm Stand just west of St. Louis in Ballwin, MO. The owners are 19 & 17 and are responsible for planting, maintaining, and selling the vegetables. Our garden started as a way to grow our own vegetables during the summer and have some quality family time, especially with Great Grandpa. Our parents do not believe in giving us allowances for household chores and we are not allowed to have jobs during the school year. Each year we have invest some of their earnings back into their garden by upgrading something or planting something new to make the garden better. In the last 7 years we have added raspberries(‘19), blueberries(‘20), built a beautiful fence around the garden (‘20), built an awesome vegetable stand (‘20). added raised beds(‘21), made our own tomato cages (‘22), made pepper cages (‘23), added irrigation (‘24), covered the entire garden with w**d barrier fabric (‘25), and added a solar powered electric fence after loosing over a hundred tomatoes a day to squirrels (‘25).
