Hi Everyone,
As we sit here at lunch time watching the rain, we
thought we would give you an update. Vicky's supposed to be picking beans and I
digging potatoes, but it's a bit wet at the moment. Rocky 5 was captured Sunday
and I've determined I could catch a raccoon every night for eternity if I wanted
to. We have stopped trapping as I have a new system in place where we can lock
up all the chickens safely at night. I guess we will have to surround the corn
field with traps when it's ready to pick. The raccoons LOVE corn.
Speaking of corn. We will start having sweet corn
next weekend 7/19-7/21. The corn is Silver King a non-GMO hybrid that has been
around for years and is really tasty. The corn is grown on the Maple Border
Farm in White Hall. We will have some of our own corn in a few weeks, but we
just don't have the space to plant a large amount.
With the demise of our apiary, we have hooked up
with Forest Hill bee keeper extraordinaire Cybil Preston. We have available now
local raw honey! It's packaged conveniently in 12 ounce honey bear jars for
easy pouring.
We are open until 7 this evening and will be open
8-8 Saturday and Sunday. Regular week day hours are 9-7.
Available now:
Green Beans (when it stops raining)
Potatoes
Green Bell Peppers
Sweet Onions
Garlic
Yellow Squash
Zucchini
Cucumbers (half price at .80 cents a pound) WOW
what a deal!!
Beets
Carrots
Honey
Hope to see you this weekend!
Vicky and Steve
