Pop-Up Week #4-A
Time to grab a box for next week! We can't say for sure that this will be our last Farm Stand box opportunity, but it might be and it is will certainly be the most diverse one left as we have all of our root vegetables available! Don't miss out on our bulk opportunities: carrots, beets, parsnips, r1 read more »
Pop Up #4-B
This week, work on the farm has fallen into two categories. Bagging our storage roots is no small task with over 1400lbs of roots to be packaged into 2 to 5lb. bags.

Pop-Up Week #2-A
A day of experimentation on the farm today.

But they're just really lagging, so we put some row cover over them (even tho1 read more »
Pop-Up Week #2-B
See you all at pick up this week! This is the last Farmers Market of the season, so we're busy preparing for that. It'll be nice to start to slow down as we've had a pretty fast and furious season and we're TIRED. We'll be continuing with boxes and will still have a pick up option in Libby even tho1 read more »
