Lights in the Dark

12/5/2019

0 Comments

 
The long nights are closing in and the lights for the chickens and ducks are all on keeping them up to scratch and squawk and eat earlier in the morning and later into the night. They have gotten the hint and have begun laying closer to normal and with the weather not being so cold there are plenty of eggs for this Friday's delivery. Stop by the Fireman's Park parking lot from 12-1230pm this Friday, Dec 6th to get some farm fresh rainbow chicken eggs and duck eggs! I'll have some microgreens as well. 

I'll also be in Troy this Saturday, Dec 7th at the 4-H Christmas Bazaar. Come see all the great gifts everyone will have available! It's at the Morrison Elementary School, 9am-4pm. I'll have everlasting wreaths, hand-crocheted bowls, handwoven scarves, hair barrettes, and more!

​The hens have gotten used to their lights and take advantage of the extra time to eat and run around. Their 'stomachs' are small and they need to eat little but often so the long nights of winter makes them ravenous, but keeping their 'daytime' a little longer helps them keep their bellies full and them to stay warm on cold nights.
​Some of the everlasting wreaths that will be available this Saturday in Troy. All are made with flowers dried and grown on the farm and greenery collected and dried from the edges of the fields. If kept out of direct sunlight and away from rough treatment like kitty claws they will last for as long as you want!

Wintertime is the time to catch up on indoor tasks like bookkeeping and website updates. Hella is the living paperweight that help all the receipts not float away, even when there is no wind inside.
What's available this week?
  • Eggs! 
    • dozen, rainbow chicken eggs $5
    • half dozen duck eggs $4
  • Flowers!
    • I may happen to bring a few everlasting wreaths with me each week if you are looking for a holiday gift for yourself or others. All made from flowers grown and dried on my farm and collected greenery. 
  • Veggies!
    • microgreens $6
      • every week through the winter I will have a special egg & micro bundle: buy a carton of eggs (either duck or chicken) and a large bag of micros and save $1
Where to find it all?
 
December 6th, the egg/microgreen delivery every Friday from 12-1230pm.
Saturday, December 7th, I'll have a table full of everlasting wreaths, hair clips, handwoven scarves, hen saddles, and other wintertime farm crafts in Troy at the 4-H Christmas Bazaar from 9am-4pm at the Morrison Elementary School.
