White Stuff Already?

Blog: Pleasant Valley Farm   -   Friday October 16, 2009   -   By Emily

We've had a few good frosts and freezes here, so I've accepted that the peppers and basil and such are done for the year.  However, I was not ready to wake up this morning to 2 inches of snow on the ground!  Even with the wet ground, as I write this...

What's happening Tuesday at the market!

Blog: Bluegrass Farmers Market   -   Sunday May 31, 2009   -   By Kentucky Proud

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...

Winter in April

Blog: The Call Again Farm Journal   -   Tuesday April 07, 2009   -   By Laura

It looks like December outside.  It's the kind of weather that's nice at that time of year, big snowflakes dancing merrily in a slight wind over the neighbor's field.  If it were December, instead of April, I'd be curled up with a book, with a nice...

Paca Days-March

Blog: Happy Hills Alpaca Farm   -   Tuesday March 03, 2009   -   By wawanuky

Cold weather and march snow storm in the Carolinas...go figure. Its been a very cold winter here but the alpacas love it. Native to the high altiplano of the Andes, this is a piece of cake for them. And no wonder..       &nbs...

It's (Another) Snow Day

Blog: Hurricane Farm   -   Monday March 02, 2009   -   By Chris

It's another snow day here in New England.  We have about 8-10 inches with another few on the way.  Luckily, I spent some time working on the tractor yesterday.  It's a 1963 Farmall Cub, by the way. Last month, I ordered a plow extension...

Oh so Close!

Blog: Willow Ridge Farms   -   Saturday February 14, 2009   -   By Mark and Cherie

It was so close we thought we could touch it...Spring that is. After a week in the 40's-60's I thought that winter had made a quick exit. Mother Nature once again played a cruel joke....6 inches of snow yesterday. Chore time at the farm was a real...

The Recent Cold Snap in Maine

Blog: Clayfield Farm   -   Saturday February 07, 2009   -   By Phil

 And so ends the most remarkably long cold snap we've had in many years.  As of this writing, at the tail end of January, the cold snap finally ended late last night with a freezing rain that turned into all rain, falling on top of 14 inches of dry...

Crazy Idea?

Blog: Portage River Farm   -   Wednesday February 04, 2009   -   By John

This may sounds a little odd after all of my excitement about rising temperatures, but I have also been thinking about the problem of snow removal. A conversation with my step-mother a few weeks ago got wheels turning in my head. She told me that her father...

My First Blog - It Snowed Today, Yeah!!!

Blog: Breeze Hill Farm   -   Tuesday February 03, 2009   -   By MaLinda

This is my first Blog ever, so please excuse me if I get chatty. I promise I will get better. Welcome to Breeze Hill Farm! We woke up to a beautiful 1" snowfall this morning. Still being a true kid at heart, I ran outside, took pictures, made a...

  They’ve arrived! Those lovely, colorful packets full of hope and promise, each with it’s perfect picture bringing the promise of a bountiful, beautiful harvest. Today the first of several seed orders arrived in the mail. The excitement began...

Doubting the Persimmon Seeds

Blog: Double Oak Farm   -   Wednesday January 28, 2009   -   By Lori

One of our favorite family activities each fall is checking the persimmon seeds. Our neighbor has many prolific persimmon trees and she generously provides us with persimmons each year. She also taught us about the persimmon seeds. The legend says that if...

It's a snow day

Blog: Hurricane Farm   -   Wednesday January 28, 2009   -   By Chris

It's been a rather snowy winter thus far, and we are loving it!  I finally figured out the most efficient way to plow snow.  What I mean by that is I have finally figured out how to do it and move the snow only once.  The first few times I moved...

13 Degrees Below Zero, Thank Goodness for Polar Fl...

Blog: Bluewater Bay Bucking Bulls   -   Monday January 26, 2009   -   By Cowmomma

If you don't want to hear another power whine about living through the terrible cold winter, skip this posting. When we headed out to start the feeding and watering this morning, it was gorgeous. BUT, it was 13 below zero.  Oh, My, Goodness. I was amazed...

Another Neighbor To Appreciate

Blog: Portage River Farm   -   Thursday January 15, 2009   -   By John

Ok , I know I promised to lay off of comments about the snow. I have an excuse because another neighbor came along and introduced himself today. As you can guess, we received another dumping of snow. We barely managed to get Janet's car out to the road...

Stayin' Cozy

Blog: Bloom Where You're Planted Farm   -   Monday January 12, 2009   -   By Teresa

I just stepped outside the back door and took this photo across the field.  It is snowing big, pretty flakes, and they're blowing around in a sort of mini-blizzard.   I'm looking forward to a cozy evening in the house eating comfort...

Thank Goodness For Good Neighbors!

Blog: Portage River Farm   -   Friday January 09, 2009   -   By John

Snow is getting to be a tired topic. If fact, I'm ready for spring to start right now....please! This one last note about the snow and then I'll send this blog off in some other direction. The snowstorm came through today and dumped an additional foot of the...

Two Steps Forward and One Step Back

Blog: Portage River Farm   -   Thursday January 08, 2009   -   By John

It is 10am on Saturday morning and the snow-covered spruces look beautiful from where I sit in our dining room. The snow started falling again yesterday afternoon. By the time I got home we had about 5 inches on the driveway and a winter storm warning for this...
