Champaign, OH:  Every Picture Tells A Story!-An Asparagus Story

I sincerely thought I was so complete
Look how wrong I could be…
(Rod Stewart)

And, why was I not complete?

Because I have not yet had the first of the season asparagus!!

That’s right…it’s now on the market!!!

The first of the season, Harrigan’s Harvest asparagus!! Get excited, and get your orders in because the season is short, and the bundles go quickly!!

Complete yourselves, now…stock up!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

The growing season is in full swing after all this great rain and sunshine! Don’t miss out!

East Fork Farm/Worm Castings: Had a bit of delay from the tornado damage at our farm area but it didn’t stop our worms from making beautiful Castings.

Pinky’s Micros: Microgreens and sprouts are extremely dense in vital enzymes, minerals and vitamins, and chlorophyll. There aren’t many foods you could eat that are fresher. Put them on your sandwich, top your salads with them, or use them in place of lettuce.

We are offering house dried, pesticide and chemical free Lion’s Mane powder! Lion’s Mane mushrooms contain bioactive substances that have beneficial effects on the body, especially the brain, heart, and gut.
