Old99Farm Market:  old 99 farm, week of Apr 1st. 2017

More eggs this week, I may be onto the source of the problem. anyway they’re laying more.

I’ve posted several real exciting world futures links on my facebook page. I hope you go have a look at the videos of John D Lui, american cinematographer and journalist, or Gaviotas, the village in Columbia that was created on a wasteland and is now world famous for creating solutions to energy, jobs, ecological restoration.

In our garden we have same choice of greens as last week, and still lots of meats in the freezers. Taking orders for half pig, quarter beef, roasting hens, for next fall.

Starting up soon: Permaculture for newbies: A good-life design guide for Millennials, Boomers, and Generation X. Strategies, tools, and techniques to help you navigate the cardinal threats of climate instability, economic irrationality, the limits to growth, and political criminality. We’ll use ipermie!, an almanac of useful information and urban permaculture self-study guide. No cost for the study group: just a commitment to attend biweekly for 10 sessions. We’ll see where we go after that. First session week of April 15th.

Healthy eating,
Ian and Cami

Champaign, OH:  Well, now...

See you at the 10pm closing time…

XOXO,

The Wednesday Market:  IMPORTANT: We're Postponing The Wednesday Market Until Thursday

The Wednesday Market is being postponed until Thursday this week.

The National Weather Service is predicting extreme weather tomorrow, including a significant threat of tornadoes in our area. Tomorrow’s weather is supposed to be even worse than what we experienced on Monday.

We want all of our Wednesday Market customers, farmers, producers, vendors, and volunteers to weather the storms safely. That’s why we have made the decision to delay market pickup by one day.

Farmers, please make your deliveries on Thursday, at the same as you usually do on Wednesdays.

Customers, orders will be available for pick up between 3 and 6 p.m. THURSDAY.

While we know this decision may inconvenience some of you, we feel it is best to be safe.

Thank you, and we’ll see everyone on Thursday.

Miami County Locally Grown:  The market is OPEN!!

As the market opens tonight, our thoughts and prayers are with Jeanne’s Kitchen… her husband was in a boating accident, and although he thankfully is now home from the hospital, he is still recovering.

We’ll miss Jeanne’s jams and baked goods temporarily, but hope for Tom’s speedy recovery and will look forward to their return :-)

And the market will take a one-week vacation next week for Easter, so get those orders in!!

We’ll have pick-up as normal next week on the 11th, but the market will NOT reopen that evening… we will open back up for orders on Tuesday the 18th!!

We know that many of you have already placed your orders for this week, so we wanted to let you know that MOREL MUSHROOMS became available after the ordering system opened.

Get these while you can, they won’t last long! We also still have vegetables, eggs, herbs, olives, olive oil, fig trees, flower bulbs, salsa, fermented vegetables, and crafts available for order this week as well.

Thanks,

Cape Locally Grown:  10% off asparagus and more!

Yay, we have chemical free asparagus grown by Laughingstalk Farmstead!

Lettuces and more spring veggies are available this week and all 10% off!

cape.locallygrown.net

We had a question about how CLG locally grown veggies are grown. Here’s our response..

Part of our goal with Cape Locally Grown is to provide a venue and encourage small local farmers who grow organically. It is the best environmently friendly sustainable way to grow organically! The farther away things are grown the more carbon footprint they have. They are also more likely to be sprayed in transit at border crossings, etc.

Laughingstalk Farmstead and Greens Garden (ourselves) are two of the growers who grow chemical free and at this time are the only vegetable growers in our market. We often buy from Laughingstalk and can taste the organically grown excellence.

If you would like to order from Cape Locally Grown we require complete transparency of every farmer and we kindly make sure every farmer understands and is accurate. As consumers that is what we also expect so that is very important to us. Please read each farmers description and ask us if you have any questions.

Thanks for eating chemical free and we hope you can enjoy the local produce options that are available to you year around. Since they are picked and delivered to you usually within 24 hrs they are the most nutient dense too ;).

Enjoy the difference!
