Save California. Buy local

This graphic by the NY Times is great.

Food takes lots of water to produce.  Buy it where it rains.

And now a pretty farm picture.

Organic! To Market!

Hooray!  The farm is now officially certified Organic.
 I'm still growing the same great veggies, but my methods have now all been reviewed by MOFGA and I can proudly hang up this fine banner.

We're going to the Bowdoinham Farmers Market!  Saturdays 8:30AM to 12:30 at the town waterfront.  See you there!
We'll have these lovely greens and more!


Meanwhile, potatoes have been planted. (4 tasty varieties, stay tuned to find out which ones grew)


A bed of asparagus is in (hoping for a light harvest next year)


We planted some lavender with a little help.



took a few glamour shots of Charlie's tractor after a fine job cultivating.


And survived a really spooky cloud.  (remember in Ghostbusters, when they're on top of that building and Sigourney Weaver is possed by Zuul, and Bill Murray saves the day?....  )
