Spring is farm improvement time.
Concrete pad and pallet wall. Keeping fertility on the farm. Or, as we joked when we were putting it together, this wall is to keep manure in – not to keep people out.
Produce For Sale
Our current crop of black beans, heirloom corn, and hard red winter wheat is currently available.

Been a bit slow on the farm the last few months, as we have been busy getting to know a new human, the #newestfarmhand. Finally getting the sourdough back in shape, using @janiesmill and @meadowlark_mill_and_farm grains (because mine are all in cold storage!). How’s your #winterbaking going?We used to invite our invaluable farm helper Emmet and his family over for a harvest dinner every year, but with Covid this year it’s hot dogs and s’mores at the farm. Still lovely.Just finished our annual @mosacertifiedorganic inspection/audit on this chilly morning. Only needed one additional piece of paperwork, which I will hopefully be able to forward to the inspector by the end of the day. 👍🏼👍🏼Sunflower 🌻 harvest ✔️. Not many photos, because we were racing to get it done before the rain. And it got done! Thank goodness for good help.It has been raining, so it’s been a minute since I’ve been to the farm. Came out today to find this cute little present from an anonymous friend! I guess this is a good prompt to let you all know that there’s an #evennewerfarmhand on the way sometime between now and Thanksgiving.Clean-out-the-fridge cornbread made with our own #heirloomgreencorn grits (milled pre-pandemic by @janiesmill ) was my dessert tonight.Spending the golden hour waiting for a truck. Truck drivers do a lot of waiting, and the fact that this guy is late is not his fault. Still kind of wish I had a better ETA so that I could make alternate plans. I feel bad texting “where are you now?” every half hour.Potato picking today, finally!News Briefs
Events
Our annual Farm Tour & Tea is cancelled for 2019 due to an extremely wet planting season (we expect that some things might not be planted by the last week in June). We hope to host a potluck party on the farm later in the season instead. As soon as we have set a date, we’ll let you know here and via social media.
