Farm Update

What's happening down on the farm! You're probably wondering what happened to the asparagus? Well the initial spears were fantastically frozen and subsequently killed after a cold night a week or so ago. It is coming on again and we should have some available next week. If you have never had really fresh asparagus, you have never had true asparagus. And I don't mean the allegedly fresh grocery store asparagus that was shipped in from Asparagastan. The lettuces, chard, spinach, snap peas, kale, potatoes, beets, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, garlic, strawberries, blueberries, Chinese cabbage are all planted and beginning to show some promise. Most of our herbs are planted. Most things may start producing a little later than usual this year, but baring some polar vortex typhoon hailathon, we should be close We feel we are still on track for the CSA to start on 6/4. The chicken CSA also is on track to start that week as well. We now have jumbo eggs along with our normal large/extra large eggs. The jumbos are fifty cents more at $4.50 a dozen at the farm. Many have signed up for egg delivery. Our next delivery is May 1. Please let us know if you would like delivery. Our honey sales have been off the charts the last couple of weeks. We have a new stock of Cybee's honey bears. We also have bulk honey if you're looking for a bit more than a 12oz bear. Please bring your own container to be filled. Any type of jar will work. I know a lot of folks have come in for honey because of allergy problems. A lot feel that eating local raw honey helps their allergy problems. I went to to the dump today. I confronted the dumpster I jumped into those few weeks ago. I wasn't ready. I'll be seeing my therapist tomorrow. (For you new readers, I won't go into the whole story. Let's just say I had a near death experience at the dump) Self serve eggs 7 days a week. Market hours 10-7 Tuesday-Sunday.
