Parsnips and Eggs!
Springtime is yielding dozens upon dozens of delicious eggs. With the renovations at the house, the local traffic has lessened, and the eggs are piling up. We are encouraging our CSA members -- and anyone else-- to come to the farm to buy our famous lovingly laid eggs. To sweeten the deal we will be offering this week only a bunch of parsnips to go with a dozen eggs. These parsnips which we are harvesting out of the garden this week are really something amazing. Yesterday I boiled a pot of cut up

Like the parsnips, the very soil of the garden is gearing up to produce a summer of vegetables. We will be planting cover crops this week, spreading compost, and pasturing those chickens out in the middle of the fallow acre.

Also, thanks to everyone who voiced their support at our Town Council meeting. Town councilors unanimously agreed to approve the zoning change which will allow a truly diversified farm. We still have the hurdles of code enforcement, and planning board support; we'll keep you updated.
Blessings on the meal!
