You could have blinked and missed the birth of this season\u2019s first calf.\u00a0 She obviously wanted to get out and stretch her legs… and then go back to sleep!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She has no name yet…\u00a0 Perhaps you can give us some suggestions?
\nIn the meantime, we have been seeding away feverishly in the greenhouse.<\/p>\n

The nightshade family started growing today: tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, tomatillos and ground cherries; along with some lettuces, broccoli, cauliflower and pak choy.
\nThe cold weather is likely going to delay the planting of the onions in the garden, although they have made their way into the high tunnel already.\u00a0 And the high tunnel will soon be ready for the spring planting of greens!\u00a0 Hard to believe it is April already…<\/p>\n

We’ve got fresh smoked ham roasts and whole or half chickens that would feed everyone at the table this Easter.\u00a0 We can also order spring lamb from Yellowlees Family Farm<\/a>.\u00a0 There are freshly arrived sausages in a variety of flavours: bratwurst, sundried tomato, mild Italian, honey garlic, regular and Octoberfest.<\/p>\n
