i don twant to ruin anyones day tomorrow but im not gonna be at csa. i will be giving last looks on the croquet course. might be fast. will slow up considerably if it rains. alternative plan is to tarp the course, and or move it in to the barn but it looks like theyve called off the rain.  eggs are better this week.  no clue what happened the last month. it had to be a secret nest but i never found it.  tomorrow is Jos birthday - Jo i will see you saturday. have a great one! wheres rick poore?

the lettuce did not bolt so its coming again. is it bitter? if it is dont you be. had some last night that was pretty good.  barb thought that sugar pumpkins were baby jackolanterns that were still growing. (?) she says bring bags and that she will see you guys next week as she is off to a crops fundraze.
farm keeps getting skunked on these big rains it better rain tonight.

the L and the T are coming in tomorrow. pick up some B!  read where russia is giving one hectare of land to any citizen that wants to farmstead. at this point of the summer so will I.  september very quiet on the market crash and asteroid fronts so far.  if the honey bears arrive tomorrow there is honey. if not - next week. mellifluous last saturday. might be an early halloween.  pretty good pumpkin crop but the vines are finished.  these are cooking "sugar" pumpkins.  honey is good in pumpkin pies.

big storms with a bunch of downed trees?  goosebumps driving around town for a hugelkultur farmer. if you lost a tree grab a shovel it is go time. eggs might be a little light this week - chickens have a secret nest and i cant find it.  eggplants go good with peanut sauce. what doesnt? hope everyone got invited to the sticky wicket on oct 3rd.  augo says he is coming and teh trip from texas pays for itself when he wins it. as always 5 dollar buy in for the croquet tourney and 10 dollar "buybax" -  theme is pizza parlor -made some a while back in teh new clay oven and it works.

grasshopper population is climbing. have to pick teh tomatoes just as they turn or its over.  makes me mourn for the baby turkeys lost to some asshole raccoon a few months ago - they would be gorging right now. of course they would also be eating all the tomatoes off the vine. i need a livestock manager. i think the move would be to get a couple hundred turkeys in june and pay some kid 25 cents an hour to walk them through the farm every day. is that slavery?  reading all kinds of creepy predictions for this month on the interwebs.  might be best to just party out this month. bring bags to barb.
