Sunny Cows

Posted on June 24th, 2023
Summer is heating up and everything is soaking in the sun.  The cows have plenty to eat and their calves are frolicking around like puppies...although they all would like a rain shower to cool them down!  The vegetables are steadily growing, which means more crops are being harvested. &nb1 read more »

The Longest Days

Posted on June 17th, 2023
The longest days are upon us, and in these extended hours of daylight the plants and the calves are growing like wild.  In order to keep up with them we have to run like a vine.

Honeynuts and Koginuts

Posted on October 1st, 2022
Comfort food season has officially arrived, and nothing says warm and cozy like winter squash.  This year's squash harvest of Honeynuts and Koginuts happened on the fly, with Mat taking on the brunt of the heavy lifting.  Temps dropped dramatically last week, so it required a push to get1 read more »

Roofin' It

Posted on September 24th, 2022
Progress was made this week on our pavilion/farm store.  With the help of an Amish crew of 3, we were able to raise the trusses and get the roof on.  Many hands made light work, so the process went quickly and smoothly.  We really like working with the Amish when we can, and we alway1 read more »
