Well I’ve got a truck coming to finish up the last of the jobs I had this spring. Haul out the fire wood and deliver it to where it needs to go, and to pick up the equipment on the way back threw and deliver it to my place. Then I’ll finally be able to [...]

Last October I purchased a number of small farm (large garden) equipment. I had started working on the equipment right after I had gotten it. With winter setting in, and no where to work except in the snow and cold, I had to put things off till the spring. Not that I didn’t try some.
The [...]

The past few weeks I’ve been picking up some equipment to help me in expanding my gardening into small farming. The difference? Gardening is for personal use and farming is for profit. Not to say that a garden isn’t profitable, but one can’t make a living on just a garden even if one can live [...]

Some of you may have been paying attention [...]

I’ve been reading… sounds like fun right…. well it is, especially if it is something that you are interested in. Lately I’ve been reading up on the new/revisited movement on nutrition. Remember the vegetarian movement mixed in the 80’s health craze? Maybe not… and thats why this is coming back around with new research.
Well, I’m [...]

I’m a day late in writing this, because yesterday I was just too tired to write in the end and just watched movies till I fell asleep.
Yesterday was one of those, oh so nice spring days, that drive you out side to do yard work and all sorts of other activities. So I finished up [...]

I got a call from the Chamber of Commerce president John this afternoon, we have our location locked down. Now its just getting through the village red tape. And of course the out reach to the farmers and the citizens…

A project that I have been being worked on, something that I haven’t blogged about since last year, a brain child of Todd Evans, is a Farmers Market. Todd had brought me in last year on the idea of a farmer’s market because we had a similar vision. But we got bogged down in the [...]
