Grumpy Goat: Weblog Entry
Hello everyone! I know it’s been a while since you heard from us but we have been busy on the farm. All the sheep and goats have had their spring spa day and should start heading to pasture next week. The bees are unwrapped, a few splits made, and swarm traps going up. Matt continues to plant seeds and we have outplanted our first pac Choi and lettuce yesterday.
And guess what! We have some arugula ready to cut for Tuesday! It does have some sun spots on it and flea beetle holes (they are already winning the battle against us) but it’s all delicious. So stop in the store Tuesday if you want any.
Our newest chickens have also started laying – wooohooo! The eggs are smaller so we will have some mini egg cartons available for $3 (they are labeled ‘mini eggs’ – any unlabeled are regular sized eggs).
We also have out the last of our fall honey. There are only a couple 2 pounders and about 6 1/2 pounders left. I took them off the online ordering so we wouldn’t oversell so if you need some stop in before they are gone. The next honey won’t be extracted until late May, early June if the bees have enough.
Stop on out Tuesday 2-6:30 !
