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.
Week of July 1st, Black Currants Galore
Hi There,
I hope that you had an enjoyable long weekend.
We’re in the third week of 11 of Summer veggie CSA Season.
Our black currants are at peak ripeness, kindly reach out to come by and pick your own, or buy them pre-picked from the online shop.
We’ve harvested the last Garlic Scapes and have a good amount if you want some. this means we’re about a month away from harvesting the garlic. We also have fresh frozen minced garlic, well as garlic confit, from last year’s crop, as well as ground freeze dried garlic scape powder.
We’ve hired our summer student employee and are planning to get lots of planting done in the coming weeks.
