Our first harvest of 2025 πŸ₯³

The radish greens and wine caps mushrooms got used in a dish with our homegrown ground chicken, and the radishes themselves were thoroughly enjoyed raw.

Wine cap mushrooms are such an easy addition to any garden area. They grow easily and prolificly. We got our spawn 2 years ago from The Ugly Barn Farm and it has given us 4 bountiful harvests so far. You can find them at the North Bay Farmers Market weekly to get your own fresh mushrooms!

I have been absolutely neglecting our social media πŸ₯΄ there is so much to do around here!

A snapshot of our gardens in bloom and the creatures enjoying it all πŸ“πŸ¦†πŸŒΌ

We have been leading the ducks through the garden for slug/snail control and noticed that they really enjoy the comfrey! Comfrey is great for your animals, is a nitrogen fixer, and the polinators absolutely love it. Going out to that part of the garden - you can hear it just buzzing with life πŸπŸžπŸ¦‹

Putting the ducks to work on pest control in the food forest, our roo being handsome and looking out for his girls, and our pest control in the polytunnels.

As busy as it is, I love summer πŸŒžβ˜€οΈ

I cannot begin to thank everyone enough for making this market possible!

To our helpers, to the market coordinators, and to every single person who came out on a rainy saturday to check out what some local people have to offer for the community - my sincerest thank you. You are the reason we do this. The reason we are starting extra plants, growing extra food, making cool things that you may not have the time or patience for.

Thank you. For organizing. For helping. Or simply for showing up.

See you June 22nd πŸ₯°

Why come out to the Redbridge Farmer's Market? Because you can meet cute creatures like this!!

Rabbits play an integral role on the homestead from lawn mowing, providing one of the few manures that can be directly applied to the garden, and a source of meat that is not far from chicken, our rabbits are very special to us πŸ’•

We have 9 babies born about 3 weeks ago that will be joining us this May 25th at the farmer's market!

Earth care.
People care.
Fair share.

What does that look like for you?

So far for us: regenerating a piece of land that has been abused by humans in the past, growing food for not only the humans but the creatures around us, and trying to minimize our own impact on the planet. And more...

Start small, it gets easier as you go🌎
