Farm Happenings at Mulberry Moon Farm
Farm Share Week 14 - September Has Arrived
September has arrived, bringing with it all the feelings of fall. Even though autumn doesn't technically start for another two weeks, for us it always feels like the beginning of September. The weather seems to agree, as we've had lots of cooler temperatures and rain. And the turkeys are back, so i1 read more »
Farm Share Week 13 - Potatoes!
This week is our first harvest for potatoes! These potatoes were an experiment for us as we planted them by seed.
Usually, you plant potatoes using "seed potatoes" which are potatoes which grew the year before. You simply cut them into pieces and plant them. Potatoes can be planted by seed, but th1 read more »
Farm Share Week 12 - A New Pond!
Hi farm friends!
I am lucky enough to be writing this from my parents' cottage on the French River up north. Rosemary and I and baby-to-be have escaped for some much-needed rest. We've left the farm in the very capable hands of Alex, Tristan, and our farm crew.
They've been working hard plant1 read more »
Farm Share Week 11
This week on the farm, we continued with bed prep and getting in some of our last plantings of the season. We planted a lot more salad mix and lettuce. We're a bit sad that we don't have salad mix or lettuce available to harvest right now - between the summer heat and busyness of planting we couldn1 read more »

New kale, kohlrabi, broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower are happily in the ground. Beans, rad1 read more »
Farm Share Week 8
I'm writing this on a dying phone, sitting on a Muskoka chair overlooking a corn field while bacon is cooking on the fire. So needless to say I'll be keeping this short.
Garlic is harvested, tomatoes are thriving, red onions are coming out this week, peppers are making an appearance, cucumber1 read more »
Farm Share Week 7 - Planting Time!
This time of year feels a bit like the beginning of spring again, in terms of all the planting that needs to be done in the field. This is the time when we start to plant our fall crops, so there's a bit of a hurry to get it all in the ground. In the next week or two we'll be planting parsnips, car1 read more »
Farm Share Week 6 - RAIN!
WE GOT RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you ever want to feel really, really, immeasurably and ecstatically good about the rain - try growing some plants. It'll give you a whole new perspective on rain. It will make you go out and dance under the thunderclouds.
I think our plants are grateful too. There was a1 read more »
About the farm
We are a small farm located in Strathroy, ON, just half an hour west of London. We grow veggies - lots of them! - on 1 acre of land. We believe nature knows best, which is why we grow organically. We focus on nurturing great soil, promoting biodiversity, reducing our environmental impact, and working locally. The result is fresh, healthy, and super-tasty vegetables on your table - food you can feel good about! We look forward to sharing our harvest with you.
