It’s loofah harvesting time! The first frost is around the corner and that means we’re starting to pull the loofah from their vines, whether or not they are “ready.”

In ideal situations (i.e., not ours), “ready” means that the loofah will mature, dry on the vine, and change from a vibrant green to yellow and brown. This makes it very easy to peel.

Our loofahs are nowhere near that level of “ready,” but they are structurally mature and ready to be your sponge! It just takes a bit more effort and elbow grease to get it out.

At North Durham Farmers' Market this weekend, we will have a loofah processing station where you can select your loofah, get a quick tutorial on processing, and then peel it yourself! Ashley, Tonya, and Mama D will be there to give you a hand, if needed! You can also take it home and bake it to make the peeling easier.

The cost is $10 and you’ll have enough loofah to share!

We will be bringing our loofah to the market this coming Saturday, 10/17 so you can process your own! Here is a re-post of Ashley processing loofah for the market last year. Sound on!

We will post more details about how you can process your own loofah at North Durham Farmers' Market

Built a scrapwood palace for Lil Mama and her Questionable Decisions. Just giving her an option to get out of the rain and away from the other chickens.

Hatching baby chicks right now is not the decision we would have made, but obviously we’re not in charge. We are actually pretty happy for her as she has wanted to be a mama for a while now (see pic of tiny bantam chicken on a pile of not-her-eggs).

For context, lil mama is a bantam chicken which means she’s little but still full grown (she’s about 7 y/o, we think). The pic of the orange bird is the rooster - a Silkie. All of the babies have feathered feet (from the Silkie) and at least one of the babies (the orange one) came from another hen’s egg, we think our Olive Egger. Time will tell who the other two babies are related to.

One of our bantams went missing a few weeks ago and we figured she got scooped up by a hawk. We found her today…with three babies in tow. Turns out she was just hiding out, laying on some eggs.

A rainy Sunday meant catching up on pepper processing.

We eat pepper mash/paste and sambal year-round, so this is the perfect time to restock the freezer. We grabbed our leftover peppers from the Saturday market, old woody carrots that we should have harvested weeks ago, overgrown green onions past their prime, garlic, and some baby ginger and turmeric, including stalks and leaves. It’s kind of a kitchen sink approach.

From that we’ve got three pepper mash ferments - one that is havasu-based, one that is habanero-based, and one that is a mixture of the two. We also have a creamy poblano sauce (sans cream), sriracha sauce, and a sambal that we made with everything else that was left on the table (except the jalapeños).

If you’re looking to make a sauce or paste, let us know! We’ve still got some time before the frost!
