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 Mar10 2013
This post expired on March 12, 2023.
More greens this week. Regrowth kale and mizuna, chard.
Eggs still priced at a dollar off, that’s $4.50 for large, $5.50 for ex large.
Had the first lambs arrive, three so far but twins died at birth. I found it hard to take.
Read The Insatiable Bark Beetle by Reese Halter, if you’ve ever wondered about the impact of climate chaos on the natural world that sustains us. I just finished it; had me weeping and chuckling by turns.
Anyone check that website for kitchen utensils I posted last week? Thanks to a member, we can buy neat helpful stuff for food prep wholesale.
eat well,
Ian
