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 Aug 27 2023
We’ve still got lovely peaches, eating apples (Snow variety), and now Asian pears.
The bounty is tremendous this season, from tomatoes to onions, it’s a very good crop year.
Are you doing any freezing or canning? Why not start this year?
I’d like you to consider our new program called Your Farmer for A Year". You commit to a support of fruit, veg, meat, eggs and __ and get first choice of our limited crops. Your family gets a large portion of its nutrition from Old99, clean, fresh, chemical free, organic, animal friendly and soil friendly. What’s not to like about that? You put an amount on deposit in advance per quarter, based on your family’s budget. Might be $1000 to $2000. And you get a 10% discount or 10% more for your money.
