The Weblog
This page contains news, event information, and other items added by Ian and Adam, the resident farmers at Old 99. We send out a message every week, but most are set with a delete date about two weeks later. I archive some of the posts if they have content other than weekly availability of produce and meat.
You can send me questions too, which if they are of a general nature, I can post to this Old99 blog.
Old 99 Farm Week of Aug 4 2013
This post expired on August 06, 2023.
More projects and more vegetables this week. Even some strawberries from the new plot, only a few so I’ll have them picked for the folks who come for their regular fare.
The woodshed is getting most of the landscaping done so the basement level ramp is evident. Building the structure should start next week.
Friend Andrew built most of the new chicken sled for raising broiler chickens on pasture. The chicks are about 3 weeks old now and growing fast. Will go outside in a week or two.
New HelpXers here, Simone Berger from Germany and Saya Yoshihara from Osaka Japan are learning what farm life is like.
See you Thursday,
Ian
