2011 CSA

There are a few spots left for the upcoming 2011 CSA. These spots are for pick-up at the farm. We have increased the number of CSA spots for 2011 in hopes that it will be a great year.

It has been a busy spring already here on the farm. With everything that is going on and that needs to be done it is hard to balance farm life and family life.

Our smaller greenhouse has been sowed with mainly spring crops, trays are constantly being seeded, the pasture has been seeded and gardens have been ploughed. Our main battle of the spring has been trying to get the plastic on our new greenhouse. The wind made it hard to get very far with putting the plastic on.

The asparagus, garlic and herbs have all survived the winter. We were worried that the snow load of this winter was going to take our small greenhouse but it managed to hold it's own. Next year with the large greenhouse I am sure there will be constant worries about wind and snow load.
