Dear Folks,
The ground soaked that little shower right up almost before it hit…and a cool breeze in the night as well!
It’s been a long time coming…but a good reminder that Mother Nature has her own clock. We get pretty clever with our technology and ever increasing speed. So maybe we need the occasional reminder we smart people aren’t running the show.
Already fallen leaves cover everything and accumulate in ditches. The heat wave allowed for good hay making, but kept the last cutting from growing at all.
We probably should go ahead and think “Fall.” Petit Jean Farm customer/partners do not need to worry about market season coming to an end because we keep going year round…right through the winter.
As long as you keep buying, we can keep producing. Thank you again for your continued support.
Mark your calendars for October 23! This will be our annual Apple Butter Day. Join us around the open fire while we make homemade apple butter in the copper kettle. We will keep you updated with more information.
