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.

Old99 Farm week of Mar 25 2018


We have delicious new greens now in the greenhouse: chard, lettuce, arugula, kale and lettuce. Hope to see you friday.

New beef, along with chicken, pork and lamb.

I have bare root trees in cold storage ready to plant, these are large caliper trees, trunk diameter from 1 to 2 inches. We need to plant trees everywhere don’t we? For the good of the planet, reducing carbon pollution the natural way.

I am registered for an advanced permaculture design course starting early April. I’m offering to work with someone on doing the design for your place, from a 1/4 acre up to 20acres. No $$ cost to you but you’ll need to budget time as the ‘client’ to think through your objectives, hopes and wishes for your homeplace. This course lasts 10 weeks. By mid summer you’ll have a design for resilience and possibly quite self-sufficient lifestyle.

Have you been following the news about how the social media are being used to influence people’s behaviour, including voting behavior? Here’s a list of what FB and Google have on you.
