Yep, it's true. Having Mother Nature for a boss is never easy. While others have been working on their tans we've been re-planting and cleaning up after 3 hail storms. But never fear! We've set our delivery schedule! Due to the weather we've had to push back the delivery dates and they will now be Friday June 4th-Friday October 22nd and possibly later. We were asked by several people to change the delivery to Friday afternoon so that they could enjoy the produce at it's freshest all weekend. Please let us know what YOU think.
Coming to our place this weekend are 125 meat birds and some 10 or so turkeys. 25 heritage turkeys are arriving at the end of next week. So there's gonna be some cheeping going on around here for sure!
The new bees are settled in their hive and the queen must be doing ok because there are lots of larvae of various ages. That's good because bees have relatively short lives and so they have to raise brood all the time to keep the hive strong. Here's some reading about bees if you're interested.
Well, time for me to be getting up and back into the garden. Hopefully it's a nice day. As long as we can have a few nice days it'll jump start all the veg again.
Have a lovely long weekend. See you in 2 weeks!
We had a dream, like so many others before us, to live a simple and sustainable life on our own organic farm... so we drove from Vancouver Island, British Columbia to the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, and we've been here nearly 6 years. We love life, learning, and sharing with others. Follow our adventures as we build a vibrant small family farm and work towards self-sufficiency using a combination of traditional methods, permaculture and original ideas.
