Champaign, OH:  Special Market Pick Up, Today!


Hello, lovely customers!!

Today is market pick up, but I am going to start the pick up process at 3pm, instead of beginning at 4pm!!

There is rain in the forecast for 5pm, and Champaign Berry is coming with to set up, with corn, tomatoes, squash, and cucumbers to sell!!!

I want everyone, weekly customers, and non-ordering customers to have a chance to come out, and grab all that they have to offer, and rain will not be fun to do that!!

So, this evening…market pick up begins at 3pm, and plan to shop from Champaign Berry while you are getting your orders!! Also, if you missed ordering, this week, feel free to run out to the farm, during market pick up, and shop from Champaign Berry!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 farm week of Aug 13 2023


Fruit harvests are beginning. We’ve had tomatoes, eggplants, peppers and cukes for a few weeks, and berries are almost over. Blackberries, aronias left. But now the pome fruits: apples, pears and stone fruit: peaches, plums. So far one eating apple and Red Haven peaches in limited supply. No spray, tree ripened.

Other news: lots of eggplants the Rosa Biance round variety, lots of cukes both pickling (3 to 4") and slicing (5 to 7"). If you want bulk buy, best to request with lead time of a week.

Brocoli is now in prime season, garlic has been harvested and dried, and root crops are being dug.

The film: Regenerating Life that I told you about on Sunday is about the dynamics by which the water cycle can rapidly balance climate extremes. It is science that has been obscured by all the fuss about CO2e greenhouse gases. Yes we have to stop fossil fuel pollution, but we can also grow our food in ways that stabilize the climate and reduce severe weather events worldwide. Have a watch for the trailer. I’m going to bring the film to Hamilton this fall. And here’s a segment on Bill Gates fav distraction: cow farts.

Our offering: peaches, celery, brocoli, frilly kale, Nero kale, Rainbow chard, Tiara and Savoy cabbages, Tokyo Bekana chinese cabbage, beets, bell peppers, sweet bulb onions, scallions, fennel, green garlic, baby lettuce mix, baby buttercrunch lettuce, radishes, rhubarb, carrots, collards, cabbage collards, leeks, basil and herbs.

Surf to the online store here to place your order. Store pick up Thurs 4 to 6 or by arrangement. *

Healthy eating

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market


I’m still quite behind on the farm chores thanks to lots of rain or blazing heat! Farming is not for the faint of heart! Lots of our plants are withering under the conditions so we will have slim offerings for a while from the garden. I’m open this week, but scaled back a bit as I am trying to get the summer plants out, soil amended and fall garden in. I am starting microgreens so we will have those by next week, maybe sooner. I will post on FB and update via this newsletter as well if they do come in by market day.

Have a great week – stay cool! It’s another heat advisory today. A good reason to try our mixed berry switchel to stay hydrated!
