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 July 7 2019


A late reminder, we’re still here!
Thanks for the orders already send in.

New crops are coming along nicely, onions, raddichio, potatoes, squashes, beans, beets, cabbages, zukes, cukes, celeriac, carrots, collards, sweet potatoes and tomatoes.

Green onions and raddichio ready to harvest early stage growth now.

Berries will soon be out: currants and raspberries are already ripe, aronia, gooseberries later.

Eggs special: buy two dozen, get one free.

Beef and pork in good supply.

I could use a couple people over the weekend to finish putting the hay in the barn… any takers? only an hour or so.
