It has sure been a hot and dry spell of weather the last
two weeks here on the farm. Fortunately, two years ago we began to put into
place a new grazing system that we feel has been of great help this year. We
are working hard on building high organic matter on our farm which has enabled
the soil to hold more water and nutrients and therefore translates into helping
to produce food that is more nutrient
dense both for our animals and for our customers and our own family.
This month we harvested our own certified organic garlic.
It is German white extra hardy garlic and we are pleased that it is certified
organic and our own crop. This garlic is for sale now at $12.00/pound for
either seed or garlic for cooking/eating. If you would have any questions on
how to plant garlic, please feel free to call and we will be happy to help. We will have garlic only while our supply
last, so act quickly!
Here are two quotes we would like to share:
“Nations endure as long as their topsoil.”
Henry
Cantwell Wallace (Iowa State College of Agriculture)
“The wealth of a nation can be measured by the depth of it’s’
topsoil.”
Thomas
Jefferson
Wishing you Good Health and Happiness,
