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 10 2014
Writing tuesday am, we got 20ml rain last nite, starting right after we got the hay in the barn. Thank you so much to Kate and son, Crystal, Kaelin and daughters for your helping hands.
Beefsteak tomatoes are ripe in the greenhouse now, along with the yellow plum minis. The beans are ready to harvest, purple and green varieties.
As well the zukes, cukes, vegetable marrow, beets, carrots, mixed salad, eggplants, garlic, peppers, herbs, and chard.
There is beef in the freezer and roasting chickens fresh from the butcher, all raised here on pasture of course.
Camelia has made up another batch of cuke relish and pesto.
We could really use recycled grocery bags and sacks, along with egg cartons.
Come on out!
Healthy eating,
Ian and Camelia
