Amongst all the spring weather we are looking far into the summer months as we’ve now planted some of our main summer veggies this week - cucumbers, eggplant, summer squash, tomatoes, and basil will be filling your boxes soon. And with a freezer stocked with our pasture-raised bacon, BLT season is just within reach!
Calving is picking up as lambing is slowing down, we have just five more mama sheep left to have their lambs and then lambing season is a wrap! We have 9 calves and seem to get a new one every other day now. Be sure to follow us on Instagram to keep up with all the new life happening on the farm!
In our featured photo, we might look like a bunch of farmers lounging in the field, but we’re actually talking about big plans and intentions for the season! From team building, to marketing, to decisions around hay, and when to harvest the wheat - collaborative conversations are just as important as working in the fields! This weekly team meeting was held in our wheat fields, which are almost ready to be cut for hay and some will be harvested as grain for pig feed, covercrop seed, and if the protein content is right, maybe even wheat for flour!
