Fresh Bread


The farmstand is open this afternoon (March 11,2023) from 12:30- 5 PM. There is still a good stock of the normal late winter vegetables such as potatoes (Irish and sweet), beets, carrots, onions and garlic. The bulk food room is restocked again with flour, sugar, oatmeal etc. One thing of note is that there are NO PRICE INCREASES. A highlight for today is that we have fresh bread baking which will be available this afternoon. They are mixing a white sourdough bread and the normal honey wheat bread. ( priced @ $5 per loaf.) Not today but soon we will be also baking a few other things such as cookies. The baking is a joint projct between my daughter Rebecca and my son Joshua with the help and mentorship of my beautiful and capable wife Mendy. The plan is to be baking every Saturday during the late winter- early spring. When the stand opens with summer hours the baking days will change. In the greenhouse we planted about 70,000 onion seeds about two weeks ago. They are up and growing nicely along with the other normal early things. Soon this snow will go away and after a bit of mud season there should be spring, green grass and asparagus. When summer hours resume this spring we will not be open on Mondays. Summer stand Hours will be Tuesday- Saturday from 10 am- 6 pm. We have judged that as a family that we want a two day weekend. Daniel
