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.
Berries ready to harvest
I am so thrilled, in the nick of time I got irrigation on the raspberries and currants, which were looking rather small and wizened, due to the drought. Now they’re plump and soft and sweet!!
So U-Pick is open for the locallygrown list. Come to the farm, find me (cell phone page if necessary) and get baskets in the store or bring your own.
Raspberries $1.50/100gm (1/3 pint) so $4.50/pint for Upick.
Currants $.80/100 gm or $2.40/pint.
Should be a crop on for about a week to ten days, depending if we get rain (which will cause spoilage faster).
come on out!
