CSA Pickup this weekend July 15th 10-30-2pm.
We have been battling the deer this past couple of weeks out in the field. A doe with 2 little fawns have made their way through just about every bed they can find to munch on. Echo the farm dog (which I use the term farm dog at this point as a joke) isn’t doing his job…as a matter of fact he is not even giving chase anymore…too hot I guess. So please if you are out in the field and you see the socks on post…don’t touch them..they are pee socks. Mark and Lucca’s job is to pee on the socks in the morning and hang them on the post..the scent lets the deer know there is a predator in the area and to stay away..this has worked for us before..We will have to see what happens with this year.
This CSA pickup will have the first tomatoes and blackberries of the season…Hope y’all are enjoying the CSA season and be sure to take some flowers home with you.
