Green Flamingo Farm is in Oak Hill.  With 3 acres in production, Green Flamingo aims to introduce the community to an amazingly tasty and beautifully unique way of eating.  Their beautiful produce can be found at the New Smyrna Beach Farmers’ Market on Saturday mornings, the Brevard County Farmers’ Market on Thursdays, and through their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Program from August to May.
