This year at the Stanhope Discovery Museum, where I'm the garden's coordinator, we once again, planted a "Three Sisters Garden". Until I moved from Toronto, here to Haliburton County, I'd yet to hear about what a Three Sisters Garden actually was....

The frost has hit and the squash is done. Sadness creeps into the picture as one looks around at the dying plants. The sqash was commanding the garden mere days ago, but its leaves are now turning a sickly dark color. The frost sneaks in...

It seems as though summer and it's bounty is slipping away only to be followed by the Fall Harvest. It is sad to see one season pass but at the same time it is very exciting to see what the next season will bring! Today we started collecting our pumpkins...

Today was another day of processing chickens. While it's not my favorite job, I feel ok about it as our chickens, living a life on grass and in the sun, have a far more comfortable existence than those in factory farms. I feel better about selling...

The kids are back in school, the weather folks keep telling us that the meteorological fall season has started, the pools have closed, windows are being opened and the AC is being turned off. What does that mean for the folks at the Bluegrass Farmers' Market? ...

We are finishing up this year's corn crop. We had a good growing season and our corn turned out very well. We cut most of it for silage and saved some to pick as ear corn. The heirloom variety we planted- Boone County White- produced some very tall stalks and...

The weather just has not cooperated for us this summer, and it seems like a month since I've been able to garden or make hay. The plants seem to be loving it though, and I'm just hoping for a bit more sun so all these green tomatoes and ears of corn will...

I was sitting here this morning trying to think of a way to let folks know just how wonderful the Bluegrass Farmers' Market really is and I decided that I'd probably just tell you what went home with me at the end of Saturday's market. I can tell you, it...

Saturday is almost here and from what I have seen, the Bluegrass Farmers' Market will be loaded with homegrown goodness once again! And, in case you didn't know, there is a difference between “local” and “homegrown!” The word “local” means that the...

What a beautiful day Saturday turned out to be. Mother Nature was very cooperative by holding off the rain until after the market and that meant that our shoppers could enjoy the sunshine as much as we did. Speaking of shoppers, it was wonderful to see so many...

The snow is coming down and there's no doubt it's winter outside. Thankfully I'm inside today and thinking SPRING. I got out my seed catalogs, last year's leftover seeds, and the list of what we bought in 2008 and sat down to place this...

Our village was settled around the turn of the century by Swedish settlers who learned this land was for sale by reading handbills written in Swedish and nailed up in three east coast cities. Only Swedish folks could decipher the notices so it pretty much...
