A song from the onions and leeks…
The onions and leeks (fearing that they will never make it into the garden) have adapted a song for Spring. Oh, the weather outside is frightful, But the fire is so delightful, And since we’ve no place to go, Stop the snow! Stop the snow! Stop the snow! Wait… isn’t that a Christmas carol –… Read More about “A song from the onions and leeks…”
First Calf!
You could have blinked and missed the birth of this season’s first calf. She obviously wanted to get out and stretch her legs… and then go back to sleep! She has no name yet… Perhaps you can give us some suggestions? In the meantime, we have been seeding away feverishly in the greenhouse. The nightshade… Read More about “First Calf!”
March “Break”…
We have been busy this week – trying to keep the seedlings watered and warm, exercising the horses and entertaining the kids over March Break. This meant a few late nights on the farm; but I wouldn’t have captured this great sunset otherwise! We will be having another on-farm mini market on Saturday, March 29… Read More about “March “Break”…”
We’re growing, in so many ways!

Happy New Year!
When I wrote you last, it was 2013 and winter had not even begun. How things have changed in the last month! The weather has dipped into new territory – making us question just how warm our storage bin would be when it is -30°C outside… and whether or not the greens would survive such… Read More about “Happy New Year!”
