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.

Hello friends of Old 99 and Equilibrium Acres,
We hope that you’re staying nice and warm through this cold spell. We could barely feel it while working in the greenhouses today, we had to open the doors to keep cool in there as it was reaching the high 30s with the sun shining.
