Fabulous February Frost

ebruary is the time to start seeding onions and organizing details while waiting for the warmer weather. These beautiful frost patterns were an early morning delight on the windows of the cold frame where a few hardy greens have wintered over.




Spring Preparation

Welcome to the beginning of the Harvest House Farm blog!  Now that it is March, the mud is starting to overtake the snow and it is time to start preparing for our second year's planting season.  There is still a lot of snow on the garden, and much, much work to be done, but to get it all started off on the right foot, a load of rails to repair the fences was delivered today by a neighbor.


In the spirit of catering to the locals and the local chefs, Lori spotted a requested variety of organic kale on a trip to the hardware store, and grabbed it up!  I can't wait to see this leafy green beauty pop up out of the ground and onto my summer plate!

As the weather warms up and the work begins, stop by the farm to volunteer and keep an eye on the blog for the latest updates and happenings!
