Rose-Hip Farm   -   Apr 21, 2010 - By Karen_2

Two good gardening days in a row! Not too hot, not too cold. Not too wet, not too dry. An Oklahoma Goldilocks week. No doubt a literal storm is around the figurative corner. Can't get too smug during tornado season. Today was especially sunny &...

The weather has been so great this Spring!  We are busy with many projects here on our little 'farmette'.  It always amazes me how much 'junk' can accumulate over Winter.   The out-buildings are in need of a good...

Poor choices

Miolea Organic Farm   -   Apr 21, 2010 - By Brian_1

I grew up in a lower income family; food was purchased based on cost and it was stretched to feed the family.  Add eggs, bread crumbs and milk to ground beef and you’d be surprised at how much meatloaf it would make.  Milk was made with...
