What We Offer

Fresh Produce

Here at Duck Creek, we grow a variety of off-season and in-season quality produce including tomatoes, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, assorted peppers, brussel sprouts, eggplants, squash and cucumbers. Our selection of produce changes by the season and year, so stop by to see what we have available. Come check out our selection and add something fresh and delicious to your dinner menu.

Flowers

Elsbury Family Greenhouse started growing flowers 40 years ago at this location. They are well know for the quality and wide variety of flowers that they produce. Available is a large selection of annuals, perennials and herbs. Call or stop in to see what we have to beautify your home or garden. We are sure to have just what you are looking for.

Freezer Beef

Cooking on the grill tonight? We have a large selection of locally grown fresh from the farm freezer beef from DownE Farms. All of their beef is pasture-fed, grain finished, and free from hormones and antibiotics. We have steaks, roasts, and ground beef in 1 pound packages or patties. We also have hard to find organ meats such as heart, liver and tongue. The beef can be purchased by the package, quarter or half.

Hay and Straw

We pride ourselves on offering quality alfalfa hay for horses, cows, goats and other livestock. Our hay is straight alfalfa with minimal grass. We also have straw for bedding, mulch or decoration.

About Duck Creek Gardens

Our property has a long and fruitful history. Bought in 1968 by Gordon Elsbury, our 10 greenhouses have long been used to grow a variety of beautiful flowers. In 2013, Howard and Betsy Downey purchased Elsbury Family Greenhouse and started Duck Creek Gardens. We are now a combined greenhouse and farm market that provides fresh produce, berries, meat, hay, and straw in addition to Elsbury's fine flowers. All of our products are locally grown and raised.

Fresh Berries

Looking for something a little sweeter? We grow our own berries including strawberries, black raspberries, red raspberries and blackberries. All of our berries taste great whole and fresh or baked into delicious pies and pastries. We sell our berries in containers or you can come down to the farm with your family and pick your own.

Off-Season Produce

We know how frustrating it can be to find fresh produce when the usual growing season ends or has not yet arrived. We've managed to work around this problem with our greenhouses. Using just the right temperatures and conditions, we can grow fresh off-season vegetables without sacrificing quality or flavor. When the weather has turned chilly and you are looking for fresh veggies to add to a dish, then come visit us and see what we have available.
