What's New 1/27/09

well, we got a little rain, didn't we? Let's all think (visualize for all you new agers) rain...nice, gentle, ground soaking rain! Maybe if we all concentrate on getting rain, it'll happen...worth a try anyway!
Two new lambs were born during the last week. Both BaaBaa and Tweedle had one each. BaaBaa's lamb has a black face just like hers. Almost all of the lambs have lots of black on them this time. Do you remember awhile back when Tweedle had twins, rejected one, John tried to get her to accept him and finally wound up bottle feeding him? We named him Spunky 'cuz he was smaller than his sibling. Inf fact, he was too small when the time came around to choose who to thin out from the herd. Well, guess who sired all these new little lambs?! Right, little ole Spunky. He's still small but that didn't stop him from doing his part for the farm! Gotta admire that ram!!!!
John's been busy clearing the beds for all those onions starts. I have to get out and take a picture of the green house before he takes them out. It really looks impressive!
He transplanted Nappa Cabbage, Pak Choi, and lettuces. Plus, took a little break from farming this weekend and we went to tango classes held here in Fort Bragg. It was great fun!

Thank you for being part of our beta test for the new version of our email newsletter. Please send in your order using this new system. Or if you're not ordering this week, then please respond to let me know that you received it and everything's working. You can pick your boxes up here at the farm this Friday from 3PM to dark. We'll leave the boxes out on the table in front of the garage so you can pick them up on Saturday if that works better for you.
