Vacation Week Recap + Upcoming Events
Last week was not only beautiful weather here but it was full of activity with April Vacation Week programs for kids. We seeded, composted, cooked, weeded, hung out with our new chickens....and all in all had a lot of fun!

News from the fields:
Pop Up Market And Plant Sale:
Saturday April 30th, 10 - 4
We are partnering with our friends at Neighborhood Farm this Saturday to host a market and plant sale. The good folks from Neighborhood Farm will have a variety of vegetable and herbs transplants for sale. We will be selling storage carrots, radishes, and parsnips from the root cellar. We will also have all of our pork products available including bacon, pork chops, and hams.
Volunteer on the farm:
Do you enjoy potatoes and onions? Help us plant our potato and onion crops this week. We have volunteer drop in hours Friday from 9 to 12 and Saturday 9 to 12. We have a big push this week to get these crops in the ground while the weather is good.
