Green
The theme this week is Green. I know, first glance, even I have stretched the concept too far. But I’ve had a piece, an article, an opinion, to unload for nearly a week now. The topic has welled up anger, resentment, sadness, grief, depression and on back around to anger. I knew I had to … Continue reading
Arbor Day Party
Hey, as I stated in an earlier post, uh I think the last one actually, I’ve decided on not opening on April twenty-second or any time real soon, ’cause after all like Connie said, I’s the boss. Instead of an opening day with tea and cookies on that-day-I-don’t-care-for-because-of-it’s-knuckle-head-association, I suggested we still have a party … Continue reading
Asparagus Beds
A few more beds in Barn Garden need to be made up, We did these this week for asparagus. Anna did an excellent job of clearing the area of weeds including along the duck fence. When the weeds get thick at the fence line it holds the rain water in the garden area instead of … Continue reading

Steph and Kai were being Thomas Jefferson and Meriwether Lewis. Thomas Jefferson was … Continue reading
The Big Truck
The big green truck was here at eight this morning. I love Mike’s big green truck. When I opened the door to put the check and list of phone numbers of the buyers in on the seat I get a wave of nostalgia. The inside of his truck reminds me of my dad’s fuel oil … Continue reading
An Incident In A Day In The Life Of Anna
Umm, tomorrow is not a day for vegans on the farm. Mike Erickson is coming in his big truck and this years lamb crop is leaving in it in a very altered state. One lamb is staying. And what is rather humorous, (sorry can’t help it, I break promises like that all the time, besides … Continue reading
