Custom Greenhouse Plants and UUVA Annual Plant Sale

Almost a decade ago, I approached Russ and Anita of Sirkos Greenhouse to grow our H E I R L O O M - tomatoes and other veggies for us in their greenhouses.  They were generous enough to dedicate a whole greenhouse for our farm

 - and to this day we are still working together!  It is great to see a small scale greenhouse - hands on family working together - and be able to purchase such vibrant plants to kick off our season.  Our first pick up was over 600 plants...with many more over the next few days.  We need to "harden" them off before they can be planted in the fields.  By working together -we support the local economy and essentially help create a village like the one featured in Vermont.  They have added a great store with seeds for sale - soon they will carry heirloom seeds from Baker Creek, we hope.  Best Wishes for continued success.  Thank you members of the Upper Unadilla Valley Assoc. for helping to preserve this beautiful valley and all of it's beauty, natural habitat, and wildlife - as today is their annual plant sale.  And thank you members for supporting small scale farmers, artisans and bakers!

Ramps are In - Goats are Out!

Happy Spring!
Ramps are picked with a limit per member of 2 bunches (quantity same as shown here!) cleaned and ready for one more washing when you get them home.  Quantity is limited.  I roasted them and ate with Pasta e Olio.  Please contact me to reserve your bunches - if you want some - I am delivering these since that is the only item available right now.

Drop off point.
For members in Utica/NH area, we need a drop off point - a store with refrigeration would be best - for those rare occasions you need a delivery.  I will try and find one but any member who has a suggestion - please let me know.

Our goats are out in their newly fenced pasture, 

covered with a variety of good eatings - the wild roses, thorn apple, the more thicket the more they like it, with some grass here and there.  Lots of varied terrain so they don't get bored and best of all - rocks to climb!  Here's the happy HERD!!  

Make sure to look for them near the store when you visit on Sat, Sun, or Mon after Memorial Day weekend - the start of our weekly CSA -  the store will be stocked and more greens are foraged...
