January 4, 2010

Last night we had our first farm meeting of the year. Talked about where to sell & promote our products, how to best distribute our fresh pesto, which Farmer's Market we'd like to participate in, planning our Spring garden, starting an herb garden, growing flowers, whether we should move forward with buying bees, how to treat our soil and how to get the most out of the greenhouse.

Our first two cows were successfully delivered to the butcher this morning at 5:45am. We'll have a better idea of pricing once we work out butcher fees, hanging times, etc with the butcher. We're happy to have at 1/2 a cow sold before even going to the butcher! Hope to have final pricing sometime later this week after butcher fees, hang times, etc are all settled.

By the way, anybody out there growing sweet potatoes? We're considering them for 2010.
