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.
Week of 13 September 2020
Hello once again friends of Old 99 Farm! It has been a beautiful week. We hope you’re all getting back into the swing of things with school started up once again. Packing high quality organic produce and meat in their lunches will make for a good day of learning.
The first picking of the HOT peppers have come off and are currently hanging on strings for drying. We still have plenty of delicious white eggplants, along with indigo rose tomatoes, green zebra tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes, fennel, green kale, red kale, collard greens, health kick salad, new crop carrots and red tropeana onions. Coming soon will be purple sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, and hopefully a nice crop of apples this year.
There is plenty of beef available in all your favourite cuts and we will have more pork in stock soon. Rabbits are now available as well.
Please remember to return your egg cartons, we don’t have enough to fill orders this week. Also please return your green plastic produce baskets.
