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 Jan 15 2017
First, please note we are moving the market day to Thursday for this week only, as I am out of town and Cami can’t be here Friday to prepare.
We’re sorry for the juggling of the schedule, hope you can make it or will call with a suggestion to come on saturday or sunday.
We’ve just got 6 more lambs back from the butcher, from 40 to 70 lb wrapped weight. These are 2016 lambs and the last of the flock. I’m re-aligning the enterprises of the farm to suit our capacities and sheep are not a fit. So enjoy your lamb from a local farm, pasture raised, organic, while you can.
The veggies are limited for a while to root crops: carrots, potatoes, leek, garlic. We still have parsley growing and the new crops of kale, cabbage and chard are planted.
We have a steady supply of eggs now, with lots on hand.
Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami
