This week on the farm...

What a great week we had on the farm. The warmer days lifted our spirits and put a little pep in our step. Our lambing season wrapped up, leaving us with 15 beautiful, unique, and healthy lambs. We had zero losses and no complicated births, couldn't have asked for a better season! Cannot wait to get them all out to pasture and watch them flourish. We welcomed 2 pregnant sows (female pigs) to the farm this week! We named them Thelma and Louise, and they are super sweet and huge, weighing in at around 500 pounds. These mamas are due mid to late April, hopefully with 8-12 piglets each. This is a totally new experience for us, but we are excited to venture into pig breeding and all that it will hold. Stay tuned for piglet updates! 

Our seeding greenhouse is singing with life, as our onions grow by the minute, our tomato plants enjoy their new pots, and our pea shoots steal the show each week. We are also experimenting growing baby greens, arugula, tat soi, and salad in lifted tables. We don't have a greenhouse set up yet to grow early greens so we are getting creative with what we have to get greens out to our community!

This spring will be filled with greenhouse building, fence building, and just getting things all set up. We have a lot to do but we have done it before and will do it again, this time for our very own farm, imagine that.

Overall, farm life has been pretty good to us thus far, and we know will only get better! Cheers to the upcoming season and the deliciousness it will hold.
