First potato

The first potato plants are popping up. This is Gold Rush, saved from last season. The dirt on the leaves was splashed up by the pounding rain that came with yesterday’s thunderstorm.

Spuds arrive

A small load of seed potatoes just delivered off a very large truck! 350lbs of Norland, Yukon Gold, Gold Rush, Purple Chief. (The boxes holding the bags are from Holland, not the potatoes.)

My local food

This is the local portion of what I'm currently eating. Produce is grown on the farm, except as noted. Prepared foods contain mainly local ingredients, not necessarily organic. Spring 2012:

In our field: -

Cool storage: Garlic, onions, potatoes, winter squash

Fridge: -

Freezer: Goat, grass-fed beef, spinach
Meats are purchased, local small-farm, more-or-less organic.

Dried: Hot peppers

Bottled: -
