The newest Hello!

Hello Everyone! Welcome to the first blog post of the 2013 season. A rainy, chilly evening over here at the farm. Perfect for drinking a cup of tea and writing a small post.

I'm new to Mansfield Heritage Farm as of this past March, and have picked up the baton from Emily (last blogger/grower extraordinaire). So far, it feels like I'm in paradise. This year we're going for gold, growing about 3 acres of organic veggies, raising meat birds, free run eggs, pastured pork, and new this year, experimenting with two polkaroo-looking alpacas. We're continuing on with the CSA from last year, and new this year, we've hooked up with a spot on the corner of Airport Road and County Road 17 to sell our veggies and baked goods every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. (whew!). Hope to see you there...expect some delicious pestos, sweet treats, canned goods, and of course, the freshest veggies in town!

Stay tuned for some farm adventures along the road...and perhaps some great recipes and bits of gardening advice...

Don't feel shy to visit! We'd love to show you this little garden of Eden and all of our *very entertaining animals. We also have pastured chicken for sale, tomato plants, free-run eggs, lamb, and pork for sale if you're interested!

Off to stretch out this day of tomato planting....

Jenna
