New mower!

A new mower may not sound very exciting to most, but living on the farm we have acres of land that have to be mowed! Having a quality working mower can transform the look of the farm! We made it through 2017 using an old mower with 1 working blade and a battery that needed to be charged every time you used it. Now we have a brand new 46" 22hp Cub Cadet mower!

Spring time on the farm comes with many things to do beyond working in the field. There is a lot of upkeep that starts in order to keep the farm looking great! We have many acres of mowing, a treenline that needs to be kept up, flower gardens to be cleaned up and mulched and so many little projects all alround the farm. We could work from dawn until dusk every single day and still not be able to be fully caught up.

When it comes to field work, we have accomplished plenty of that as well! We continue to plant tomatoes, of course. We started three fields of pumpkins, squash and gourds. We have finished most of it but have also been delayed due to wet fields and lack of time. We have also planted onions, beans, peas, radishes, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, kohlrabi, zucchini and more!

We are off to a fantastic start to our season! We're very excited to have a fantastic farming season with outstanding produce!

4.24.18 Spring is here!

We have survived one of the snowiest springs in history and the largest April snowstorm! Spring time is here and we are busy at work to get the farm prepped outside! We are weeks behind because of the snow and mud, but between Friday and today we are almost dry enough to get into the fields!

Our maple trees have finished producing sap and we're boiling down the last of our sap/syrup, which means we'll have our final product soon! We worked hard yesterday taking down all the buckets and pulling taps from the trees. In the next couple of days we'll hand-wash nearly 100 buckets and lids and put them away for storage until next year.

We have started building our greenhouses and will finish up early this week. We have thousands of plants that will call the greenhouse home until the fields are ready and the weather is steady.
