It's a beautiful day out there get out and enjoy it while it lasts!!!

Well I finally did it I spent the beautiful day inside at the computer filing my 2025 taxes with 5 days to spare here's to hoping that I can get 2026 taxes filed in a timely manner as my life slows down a bit this fall and winter...

I want to give a quick thank you to all who came and saw me at the farmers markets this season I really appreciate you all!!

Moving forward I will be attending the Minocqua winter market starting this Friday at the visitors center from 9-1 that will run until December 18th and at the YMCA on Saturdays from 9-12 starting the 4th Saturday in October (24?) for the rest of the winter.

As a reminder I am a vendor with the Northwoods Farmshare and have an order form linked at the top of this page to place pre orders directly from me.

I will be at the Eagle River Farmers Market today 8:30-1

I spent the day yesterday playing with bakery I will have cookies, puff pastries, apple crisps in the oven right now(5am), some snack mix, cinnamon rolls, but sad to say no bread today..apparently while i was playing I lost track of time to get the bread done.

I will have cheese an array of cheese today and will be sampling the soft goat cheese and I am on the last run of marinated feta. The freezer is in the van and there is bacon, ham cubes, weiners, goat loin, goat sausage, goat steaks...I have also finally made the basil and spinach pesto I will be sampling that too.

Got to start loading see you at the Eagle River Farmers Market soon and yes i will probably be late!!

The days not over yet still working a batch of feta cheese as the bulk tank was full after milking tonight

It was a busy day here at the farm started early making bread 6 batches ready for the oven by noon, hay delivery at 12:30 done unloading by 2 with swapping bead in and out of the oven inbetween. Thank you Adam for the unload you are the best!!!

Grabbed a quick sandwich and 20 minutes of down time and went off to the farm chores, cleaning making repair and winterizing lists for the farm, grabbed some water and sat down to observe the goats and didn't want to get back up but I did...
moved cooled bread into a cabinet and washed the bakery dishes.. bagged up garbage for the dump on monday,
started shifing the freezers around to see what I actually have and decided that they need defrosting (project for another day not today kathy)..
was feeling like i forgot something is when i discovered it was milking time and the bulk tank was full so off to the dairy plant to start a batch of cheese OMG its 8:30 what was I thinking it is going to be long night aaarrrgh!!!

I will be at the eagle river farmers market tomorrow with cheese and bread (italian, sourdough, 9 grain, blueberry sunflower oat, berry grainy and jalapeno cheese), probable late but I will be there

See you in the morning back to the cheese plant for the next couple of hours.

I will be at the Eagle River Farmers Market on Wednesday!!!
It has been a challenging few days here with this heat wave but the animals are doing ok mostly laying low out of the sun and not moving until sundown to eat.
On the plus side my bread baking is going quickly as the ferment and rise times are cooking right along with the heat to be honest this is some of the best bread I have made in a while, on the other hand the baker is dying a little from the heat but staying hydrated!!

As soon as the bread is done I will be heading to the cheese plant this afternoon to pack soft cheese, marinated feta, and if all goes well cut and pack some hard cheese before I run out of energy.

I look forward to seeing you at the Eagle River Farmers Market

Have a great day try to stay cool and hydrated

Summer is finally kicking into gear and I am finishing up all the farm spring clean up that has been delayed by a late spring.

This past weekend the fence lines on the south field have been repaired in the hopes of keeping the goats contained which seems to be working except the fact I then left the gate wide open (aarrgh).

The big manure pile has made its way to a new home I was glad to be able to help a neighbor adding a nice layer of compost to a new field in the sandy soil in Conover.

The big mixers and ovens have been stripped down and cleaned and the new bakery faucets came in today and will be repaired on Sunday so bigger better bread is on the way for next week.

There is still more work to happen on the farm but I do have some young help starting when school is out lets see if he sticks around after driving fence posts on the north field is the summer heat.

I plan on being at the Eagle River Farmers Market on Wednesday and Sunday from 8:30-1 and Minocqua Farmers market on Fridays from 8-1 for the rest of the summer. I do have my weekly order form linked at the top of the page for pre orders (purple box) that is open from Friday- Monday with pick up Wednesday-Sunday if you get a chance check it out, also check out the Northwoods Farmshare for a group of local farmers and producers..

Ok this is long enough, its late and I am tired and will have a long day tomorrow...have a restful night.

It has been a busy day here on the farm the chicken coop has been cleaned out, goat yard scraped down, new baby pens mostly built and barn pens cleaned out. Thanks to all the wonderful help today. It is now raining so time for a break then I am going to do some work in the barn.

Starting this week things really start getting busy Mondays are going to be my cheese plant days, Tuesdays will be bakery Wednesday Eagle River Farmers Market 8:30-1, Thursday deliveries, Baking and farm catch up, Fridays Minocqua Farmers Market from 8-1, Saturdays will be bakery, farm work, family time, and Sundays Eagle River Farmers Market from 8:30-1.

I have to laugh as I look at this I realize there is no time for things to go wrong and this saying my grandma used to tell me comes to mind "man plans God laughs" I will have to remember this as summer goes on as I am sure things will go wrong and I will have to adjust on the fly. Here's to a busy summer of plans and chaos.
