This Week At Colvin Family Farm

Blog: Colvin Family Farm   -   Friday November 13, 2009   -   By Colvin Farm

It has been a slower week--a heavy rain all day Tuesday pretty much slicked stuff up to where we couldn't do much outside. The temperature has been hovering between the high 30's at night to the low 60's during the day, and the farm has slowed down. It seems...

To Bees, or Not to Bees

Blog: Rose-Hip Farm   -   Friday October 30, 2009   -   By Karen

I finally made the leap into offering CSA shares. After accumulating all the necessary gear, books, etc. for beekeeping, all we lacked were the bees. After locating "starter bees" in our region the cost caused a pause. Bees or seeds? No doubt everyone's...

We are firmly into autumn. The trees are turning, the summer birds have either left or are now leaving (though, for some reason, the red winged black birds are back after leaving in September). We have had our first frost warning which came to nothing but did...
