Eat fresh eat local!

We have lots of vegetables to choose from. Have you ever had a fresh onion?  Unless you've grown them yourself, it is not often you can have an onion from field to table.  We also have Esther's famous Pesto. One pint jar provides several servings and can be frozen.  Try one of Jam's Paradise Pears. Take a look at our list this week and come on by!

The Farm Stand is Open!

We are stocking fresh on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays with deliveries to Derry and Londonderry on Mondays by request.  Call for special orders on other days and we will be happy to accommodate. Our farm stand is self serve so come anytime on these days.  Today we picked bell peppers, carrots, basil, roma tomatoes, cucumbers, romaine lettuce, beets, summer squash, zucchini, and crookneck squash. Come on by!

Piglets, piglets everywhere

We have 3 litters of piglets and what a great time of year to have them around. We get to see a lot of genuine pig piles! Come and see them and pick up some veggies. We have romaine lettuce, beets with greens (two servings of vegetables for the price of one!), zucchini, zucchini flowers (gotta fry'em!) crookneck summer squash (sweeter than traditional), traditional summer squash and spinach. See our busy farmer recipes posted here.

Watch out if you visit, you might get drafted!

Many hands make light work and everyone, even the littlest pitches in with the hay.

New - Bees

While we are continuing to keep bees at Steve Normanton's Farm, we decided to get some new bees for our own farm. All hives are starting off very strong this year.  The queens are very busy so we decided to give them some sugar water (organic of course!) for the worker bees to use to pull out comb on the frames. This will allow the queen to have a place to lay her eggs much faster.  As they fill up the frames with more bees and honey, we will be adding a box on top until that one is full. Bees like to build their colony from the bottom up and while the hives looks a little short now, they will be tall hives by summer's end.
