Lets just say that spring....is initially not a "pretty" season. Everything is brown and dingy, dog poop and manure piles cover the ground....everything is soft and mushy and tracks in on your muck boots. Yet around the granite foundations of many a Maine house, there are hardy little flowers popping up and getting ready to produce there little fragrant blossoms....Oh the joy of spring and what it entails....that is after you get through mud season.
This time of year makes me long for the green house and dirt of the earth...It makes me want to grow stuff, flowers and food for beautification and sustenance. Its such an exciting time. I'm looking forward to our first year at the farmers market here in Casco and know we will develop friendships and a loyal following of our farm products. This year, because of our unlicensed status, we will give our products away and hope that our customers will give a donation to the building of the farm cause. A commercial kitchen and a licensed milk room are imperative to making this farm financially viable. And those are just steps one and two. The future of this piece of property, our farm is unbelievably exciting....Don't you think.
We want you to come and visit...come see our process....see the animals....try our milk, cheese and other wonderful dairy products, like Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.
How else will you know how cool farming can be, how exciting this life choice is and what a rewarding life you can lead living on the farm. Come check it out...
Thanks for reading folks.....feel free to comment on my blog, I would welcome feed back and ideas.
You are all the best!
Thanks.
