Description
The Updates around the Farm this week focus on the big event of artificial insemination and the unexpected surprise we had with the "scheduled" standing heat. We also share our thoughts on FreshBooks as an accounting tool for farming (short version - run away). We discuss out first free range Cornish birg from last years day ranging experiment and share the experience thus far with the tax related agricultural assessment.
In the Veggie Patch it's seed ordering time. We continue the discussion from Facebook with those veggies we can't live without. The best of the best on the Rowboat of Goodness (better than the silly Ark of Taste)
In our Farmers Choice segment this week the Annual farm meeting part 1 - CSA plans and how we are not doing a CSA like in the past... this year will be different!
