This story by Love Tomorrow Today tells it all...

Look at those Leeks!

And one happy parsnip picker!

The Richmond Elementary school kids came down to our leased farm in Richmond Village to harvest Leeks and Parsnips for their school lunch program.  Always good to get kids and parents on the farm to see where their food can come from.  In this case - right out their back doors on a village farm!

Montreal Sausage Trip

Spent the day researching sausages up in Montreal.  The goal is to produce some incredible sausages from our meats.  We perused 3 different locations in Montreal:  Marche Jean Talon, Little Italy and Marche Atwater.  

Here are some pics of the day!

Poor Farmers Pallet Potato Planter

Works Great!

Birthday Boy!

Asa turned the Big 5 today!  Here he is relaxing at camp with his littler sister Hazel who turned 5 months.

We got off the farm for the past few weekends to enjoy the nice weather up in the Northeast Kingdom, where Christa's folks have a camp on a lovely lake.  We slept in, ate great food, canoed, played games, read books... started to feel like regular folk for a change!

Busy Spring!

The farm animals are generating offspring...

and the Farm Crew is laboring in the fields!

We couldn't farm very well without them.

Eating out of the backyard

Our patch of wild leeks out in a wooded section of our backyard.  The gastronomical possibilities are mind boggling!

Washed and cleaned ready for eating...

The result... sauteed wild leeks in red wine and balsamic vinegar, mesclun from the hoophouse, our farm's 100% grassfed beef, Does Leap Farm Caprella.  

Beverage: raw milk, local wine or homebrew.
