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 Nov 6th 2016
This is the week leading up to our special cheesemaking workshop starting with a friday evening lecture by David Asher. So this means friday will be very congested and I’d like to have the weekly market pickup on Thursday. If friday or the weekend works for you, please let me know and we’ll make it happen. I will be picking fresh on thursday so I need all orders in by Thurs 10am.
I put bulk carrots on this week, 4kg for $11. There are also those sweet young new crop carrots from the greenhouse.
As of Nov 6th , we can offer the following crops: swiss chard, beet root, beet tops, green onions, bulb onions, celery and celeriac, leek, rhubarb, kale, arugula, tomatoes, carrots, potatoes (redskin, dakota and purple), sweet potatoes, garlic, and herbs: chives, dill, spearmint, bronze fennel and lovage.
There is still room in the Natural Cheesemaking workshop, $100, 9am to 4pm Sat and Sunday.
Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami
