Champaign, OH: Just Can’t Get Enough
And I just can’t get enough
And I just can’t get enough..
(Depeche Mode-1981)
As we slide into these last days of August, I’m groovin’ out, as I grooved into the month, with an all 80s playlist!
With my 40th high school reunion, an 80s best friend lake house vacation, and a reconnection with of my 80’s pals, I’ve been spinning the old club tunes of my early 80s days.
And, well, I really just can’t get enough of all of you, and of this market!
I loved being back in action, tonight!
I am opening the market, for the week of ordering, and hoping that you have the grooviest of weekends!
XOXO,

Martin's Farmstand: Sweet onions and Carrots
Below is an updated ‘in season now’ list from Martins Farmstand. We have lots of cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, beans, sweet onions, broccoli and so much more at the market now.
Today there is lots of corn available in small amounts or by the bagful ($20 per bag with 4-5 dozen per bag) and I have enough broccoli to sell some by the boxful. There are lots of little pickles and cucumbers. Carrots are getting nice and big. They are available with tops off by the lb or big 25lb bags. We are about half finished with the main onion harvest. The onion crop is good this year. Daniel
Grumpy Goat: Weblog Entry
Well, another Michigan Fiber Festival is in the books. We chatted up the Pygora breed to lots of festival goers, sold some yarn, and took a couple workshops. Our two boys, who travelled up there in luxury in the Prius, did great. Mr Bingo, the wether, came away with reserve grand champion wether (aka 2nd place), and our buckling Buckley won grand champion Junior buck! To reward Mr Bingo, he got his first haircut today. I’m not so sure he appreciated it. He will head to his new home this Saturday up in Neptune. Besides that we are trying to get a lot of natural dying done in preparation for the Wool zgathering coming up in Yellow Springs!
As far as garden news… the greens are still on the fritz. Okra is finally going crazy with eggplants right behind them. There’s nothing new this week (though I finally turned on the ordering for some of the peppers and the red cabbage which you might have noticed were in the store. Place your orders or just stop in and shop Tuesday and Friday 2-6:30 at the farm and Saturday 8-12 at the Sidney Farmers Market!
