We're in operation on our own little bit of hallowed ground! Those sweet babies will be the dianthus in your bouquets in June!
As you know, April 2015, we found out we would have to move by the end of the season. Our known Minnesota soil was a bit out of our price range, so we looked across the river in western Wisconsin and found a beautiful 16-acre farm on a ridge above the Eau Galle river valley. We had a wonderful loan officer through the Dunn County FSA office, and along with her, a team of professionals, family and friends supported our journey to farm ownership. We moved across the river into our sweet 1930's farmhouse, outbuildings and our very own Hersey silt loam soil fields in October 2015. We feel so fortunate, excited and nervous, of course, to farm our own land.
It's looking amazingly springish around here, complete with lots of mud.
The chickens and the compost and the trees and the grass are singing a little song of early spring.
Earl and his Oma are back in action, especially loving the wonderful Pierce County Nugget Lake park right down the road.
Seeding tables.
Seeds and seeds in hoops and hoops. We have little hoops in the bigger hoops for heating efficiency and cost. This season we may not even need it with these warm temps.
So very excited to share another season of flowers and food with y'all. See you sooner than later friends!
Be well xo,
Jennifer, Mike and Earl
