garlic


Like always we have been busy with the farm and working on finishing our house. This past weekend Noah helped a friend slaughter chickens, we picked about five gallons of blackberries, made jam, pie, blackberry vanilla shrub, froze some. Made pesto, bread, and harvested and threshed some of our wheat. The only pictures that where on my camera where these ones. That means I was working more than photographing, or working photographing, either or.
I also have been organizing this Local Food Market running October- April at the Quadra Legion. I've been putting up posters and I have yet to write a press release for the Discovery Islander (look for it in the D.I before the Fall Fair). I'm also going to be at the Fall Fair with a Local Food Market Booth so come and visit me and sign up for a monthly newsletter. It will let you know what kinds of food you can look forward or reserve a monthly table or just bring me some icecream:)


About a month ago we harvested our garlic. Yum, heres to a healthful winter.

  2. It's a Quadra Island what we got from our friends mix from North and Granite Bay area, there might be a little westcoast seed in there from a few years ago. Heavy feeders we give them lots of seaweed in the winter and raw milk when we have it.
