Welcome Inga and Gertie!

Inga and her year old daughter Gertie arrived this weekend from the Bitterroot Valley. It was a long journey especially for Inga as she is due to calve in less than 2 weeks time! Should be an exciting day on the farm when that happens. They seem to be happy and settling in nicely on the farm. So fun to be adding more cast and characters to our happy little slice of the Gallatin Valley :)

More Planting in the Spring Garden

Onions, Lettuce, Peas, Carrots and Beets have all been planted in some new rows in the spring garden. Katie from Portland, OR has been helping out a bunch as well as other locals from our CSA. The  weather has been amazing and everything is responding joyously to all this mild spring warmth. Come on out and visit if you like it's a great time to be on the farm!
