Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm, week of Aug 20 2019

Tomorrow Friday is market day here, so Ican pick your veggies and fruit fresh. The real meaning of fresh, not as in Tim’s Always Fresh etc. Not too late now to order, I"ll check in the morning.
We have basil, carrots, zukes, spinach, radicchio, onions, beets and tops, beans, kale, collards, potatoes and tomatoes, and eggplant and peppers. Pretty good eh! Aronia berries are the next fruit to harvest: you use them to make juice or syrup and then mix as cordials and cold remedy (high in antioxidants). Peaches will be ready next week I expect.
Also Compost still available.

Also meats: beef, lots of steaks and burger; pork, chops and roasts, and stewing hens.

Climate News
Next public talk for Extinction Rebellion is Aug 29th 7pm at Aberdeen Gardens,330 Dundurn St. South, just north of Aberdeen. Come get the facts, not to be shy about it, we’re in an emergency situation. “Headed for extinction, what to do about it”. I do the talk, we have discussion and sharing ways Hamilton can should respond.

Watch XR co-founder, Roger Hallam, organic farmer and PhD in social change give a lecture, Time to Act, Now! this month in Devon England.

Gwinnett Locally Grown:  We are milking Fanny and celebrating 15 years

Hello Everyone,
It’s been a while since we have communicated here.
A lot has happened on the farm and we keep evolving.
We have some good news to share: Fanny, the one milk cow we kept from our milking herd, finally freshened 2 weeks ago, and we are back to milking again.
We only have a limited quantity of milk, and are looking for weekly pick-ups of the surplus milk we don’t consume along with a cow share option for a day or 2 off of farm chores in exchange for milk and eggs.
Also, can you believe it’s been 15 years that we started? And we are celebrating in a big way. We are opening to the public and there is so much to see on the farm with all the changes we’ve gone through over the years. We would love to see you and catch up with you, and see those young kids how they have grown. We now have a granddaugther and our youngest started college. Time has just flown by.
Here is a link to our facebook event but you can also find it on our site: www.alegrefarm.com.
