On the Farm August 20

This summer has been a fantastic growing season for us.  Eggplants bigger and earlier than ever, gorgeous peppers, tomatoes were trellised late but are now starting to come on strong!  The broiler chickens have grown faster and larger than in past years and the pasture is doing fantastic!

Just this week we moved our two ewes, Astra and Nicola, and our ram, Eclipse, onto a new patch of nice lush pasture grass in the south end of the farm.  We will raise these sheep for breeding, wool, sales of registered Jacob’s lambs and occasionally harvesting a wether if our herd gets too big.  We are excited to have a permanent ruminant added to our farm and have enjoyed the easy nature and beauty of Jacob’s sheep.
