Old99Farm Market: Old 99 farm, week of Oct 30 2023
brief news updates. we have lot of greens and roots in the soil, that means they are getting sweeter as the soil cools off for winter. Tonite supposed to have min4C first killing frost.
Lots of variety this week, with new plantings of lettuce, chard, brassicas, etc. Lots of tomatoes, esp yellow cherry toms and peppers. Our tree fruit: pawpaws, Asian pears and apples are still available.
The subscription plan “Let Me Be Your Farmer” is up and running. A friend asked me to clarify. You estimate what your family would buy in a 3 month period, total for fruit, veg, meat, dairy. You estimate how much of that you could commit to buying here at Old 99. Say half. So if your family buys $3000 in a quarter, half of that is $1500. Pay in advance for 3 months purchases of veg, fruit, eggs, meats and anything you buy from Old99, and get 10% discount plus special surprises. Still order a la carte. The farm benefits from a more secure customer commitment and has cashflow to buy inputs like seed and nutrient. You get the choicest items for your basket, a la carte. Typically I’d expect $1500 to $2000 per quarter. Or just pick a value to pay forward, and we deduct actual purchases from your subscription.
Sign up with an email to me. old99farm2015@gmail.com

And a few figs and pawpaw fruit! We have some farm pressed apple cider, not alco, from our cider day last week. Adam is firing up his freeze-drier unit to prepare freeze-dried tomatoes.

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market: This Week at the Market
Well, this is one of those weeks where we have every single season in one week! I was able to fix up the greenhouse replacing deteriorating panels and prepping for the cold weather while it was 80 degrees. I enjoyed hanging around and listening to live music in light fall attire this weekend, and now…. hold on because winter is coming for a few days! I’m hoping all the tender starts will be ok, but looks like this will be the last for the flowers! I’ll be covering as much as I can to save peppers and squash so they keep going!
Have a great week!
