Farm Happenings at Boerson Farm
The Longest Days
The longest days are upon us, and in these extended hours of daylight the plants and the calves are growing like wild. In order to keep up with them we have to run like a vine. We follow the sun, tending to the plants, the animals, the soil, and the harvest, moving in circles around the farm1 read more »
Green Beginnings
Welcome to the 2023 CSA season! Your first box is coming this week (yay!), and we're happy to report that it will be loaded with lots of early season greens like salad mix, mini romaine, kale and arugula. The lack of rain and hot conditions have been challenging for us as growers, but n1 read more »
Thank You for Eating Your Vegetables!
Making it to the end of the CSA season is a reason to celebrate because it means that we successfully fed all of our 115 CSA families for 20 weeks straight! This season we've distributed hundreds of pounds of salad mix, thousands of pounds of carrots and (hopefully), countless smiles. B1 read more »
Full Circle
This past week we put in some time tearing down tomato vines, composting beds, and transplanting winter greens. While we worked, we got the feeling that we are coming full circle...We found ourselves nibbling the last of the cherry tomatoes while remembering how it was 'just yesterday' that w1 read more »
Faces of the Farm
There is a lot happening behind the scenes when it comes to producing and distributing the food that you've been enjoying as a part of your CSA share this season. There is a whole lot more to those carrots than just orange slices on a plate. From preparing the ground for seeding, to cultivati1 read more »
Honeynuts and Koginuts
Comfort food season has officially arrived, and nothing says warm and cozy like winter squash. This year's squash harvest of Honeynuts and Koginuts happened on the fly, with Mat taking on the brunt of the heavy lifting. Temps dropped dramatically last week, so it required a push to get1 read more »
Roofin' It
Progress was made this week on our pavilion/farm store. With the help of an Amish crew of 3, we were able to raise the trusses and get the roof on. Many hands made light work, so the process went quickly and smoothly. We really like working with the Amish when we can, and we alway1 read more »
Shep's Pumpkin Patch
Fall is nearly upon us. Hard to believe that the scene is shifting from green to orange, but here we are already harvesting Shep's pumpkins with Halloween appearing on the horizon. This week temps are forecast to drop from the 80's to the 60's...a change that some people welcome and oth1 read more »
Full Moon Feast
I love watching the moon. It's phases, like a good mentor, offer me direction. Every month it's face gets bright and full, bringing with it an opportunity to receive fresh inspiration and new ideas. When the moon waxes full I stop in my tracks to take it in, to open myself fully t1 read more »
About the farm
Boerson Farm is a 69 acre diversified family farm in rural Green Lake County, located 30 minutes southwest of Oshkosh. We are USDA Certified Organic and grow over 60 varieties of vegetables. We also rotationally graze our grass fed beef herd of Red Devon cows, maintain a flock of laying hens for pasture raised chicken eggs, and work together with a local bee-keeper to manage a modest apiary. We've been dedicated to growing for our local community since 2008 and are committed to providing the highest quality produce, beef, eggs and honey possible using ecologically friendly practices. We love what we do and we want to be your farmers!
