TOPEKA (KSNT) - A neighborhood farm stand is gaining traction in the Capital City.

Krystle and Brandon Simpson recently opened the Little Hippie Homestead Farm Stand at their southeast Topeka home. 

They offer fresh eggs, organic veggies, homemade bread,and other hippie goods right in their front yard. The couple told 27 News that they started the stand to prevent their extra organic produce from going to waste.

"I told my husband; I said, can you build me a little farmstand, just something small?" Krystle said. "We can just put the extras out there, and we will just make it donations-based. So, if people want to throw a couple of dollars in the bucket, they can." 

The farm stand can be found at on 3424 SE California Ave. and is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. until dusk. 

Krystle also told 27 News that she offers free yoga classes on Saturday's right in her backyard.
