Oak Hill Farm: June 2012
http://oakhillfarms.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Family Owned and Operated Since 1832. Saturday, June 16, 2012. Box 6: Last of the spring! What a great spring! We have loved filling up the boxes every week; there is something very satisfying about planting seeds, seeing plants grow to maturity, and then assembling everything into boxes. Not quite as satisfying as cooking the veggies, but still. We have learned a lot in the process, and our first-season CSAers were wonderful to help us in the process. Thanks! Basil, cucumbers, green onions, cabbage.

Family Owned and Operated Since 1832. Tuesday, August 9, 2011. Weeding the New Herb Bed. Last week, we had our first experience with WWOOF and WWOOFers. We were pleasantly surprised. Actually, that's a monumental understatement. We were ecstatic! WWOOF, or World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. We signed up last winter as a WWOOF-friendly farm through WWOOF USA. The US arm of WWOOF International. You can see part of our profile here. Though you'll have to sign up or sign on to see the whole thing.

Oak Hill Farm: April 2011
http://oakhillfarms.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Family Owned and Operated Since 1832. Wednesday, April 6, 2011. A fresh coat of paint. From Oak Hill Farms. Last fall, Tim Ammons of Oleo Acres brought out his ladders, scrapers, and paint gear to give Oak Hill a fresh coat of paint. Then, winter came- and with things looking grey and brown, we've waited until now to share the first pictures. The house looks really awake with the shutters still off (Tim is reworking them this spring)- and it just glows in the late afternoon light. Posted by Ted M.

Oak Hill Farm: CSA Week 4! With special guest veggies!
http://oakhillfarms.blogspot.com/2012/06/csa-week-4-with-special-guest-veggies.html
Family Owned and Operated Since 1832. Friday, June 1, 2012. With special guest veggies! The whole idea of a totally self-sufficient farmstead with all of its own produce, animals, etc. is something of a myth. Here, I mean "myth" in both senses: in that it probably never existed as such and that the idea. Our farm has been in operation since before the civil war. Back in the day, the spread was much larger and the north edge of the property included what is now Oleo Acres Farm. We had kale in the box last...

Family Owned and Operated Since 1832. Friday, April 6, 2012. Spring has sprunged. er. springed. Sprung! Not that the winter was any great ordeal here, but with the trees in full leaf or nearly so and winter temperatures warm enough to sleep with the windows open, I think we are safe in saying that spring is here. It's been a busy time here at Oak Hill- especially in getting ready for our first ever spring CSA. Posted by Ted M. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.
