Spring is finally arriving here at the farm. tiny plants in the greenhouse, more cold tolerant veggies peeking out of the garden. The rabbits are busy doing what rabbits do, and we have added organic quail to the list of groceries we will make available to you this year. The recent rains have actually brought on a small flush of shiitakes that I will have available Saturday when the Jackson County Farmers Market will officially move back outside!

Speaking of shiitakes, our 4th annual shiitake workshop and potluck will be Sunday, April 3 at 9:30. hope to see you there!~ call me, if you have any questions!
