Animals are a pain. Yup there you go, I said it. They require care 365.25 days out of the year, and they often reward you with getting into mischief. That’s what happened this week! All 78 sheep decided they didn’t like the pasture they were in and wanted to find a different shaded area1 read more »

Posted on June 9th, 2022
What sort of farm related drivel can I subject you to today? I’ll start by saying that our planning for the first bit of the season was definitely off target.

Regenerative agriculture is a non-regulated branch of agriculture which claims to regenerate the landscape while sequestering carbon and growing better, more flavorful food. So if you see someone claim to be a ‘regenerative’ farm, or you see a regenerative label, that doesn’t nece1 read more »

How Much Land Do You Farm?

Posted on September 17th, 2021
It’s a question I get asked all the time, but it’s not really a question which really gets to the heart of what we do. For instance, we grew six acres of oats which we put up into hay this year. The value of that hay may be a $1000. We also put a small piece of land into baby green prod1 read more »

Micronutrients

Posted on September 10th, 2021
Oh boy, here goes the farmer! This season in our large greenhouse, we have done pinpoint micro and macro nutrient assessments through the use of some cool new technology called a sap test. It has been used extensively in other countries, but in the US it’s just beginning to gain popularity. W1 read more »
