Andi says "Hi!"
You can see her and her momma Annika when you come by our farmstand. They're up by the barn so we can keep a close eye on Annika, who is due to calve this week.
Farmstand is jam packed for the weekend - fresh bouquets (also at the farmers market 10-3 today), strawberry milk, chai and coffee milk, lassis, cream, milk, lemon skyr and more.
The .greens.vashon produce fridge is stocked with spinach (unbelievably sweet - I've never tasted spinach like this before!), salad, green garlic and more.

STRAWBERRY MILK - NOW IN STOCK

We're always tinkering and trying to improve our flavors. Strawberry milk has gone through more iterations than any of our other products because there are so many variables involved in getting it just right. Well, we have arrived at something that we don't think can be improved on. The perfect strawberry milk is here, it's plentiful, and we plan to keep it around. If you love strawberry ice cream, you'll love our strawberry milk. Perfection!

It's peak grazing season here on Vashon Island, and the milk cows are enjoying daily moves to new pasture. It's a lot of work for us, but also makes for some super milk. On last week's milk test, three of our four cows were over 6% butterfat!

Here Kimber, Shallie and Daisy are grazing the hill above our little valley.

Butter is finally back in stock, and we're doing our best to pack the farmstand for the weekend ahead. You'll find whole milk, buttermilk, yogurt, lassis, chai milk, chocolate milk and coffee milk, fromage blanc and cream.
Gracie's Greens spring veg: salad, little gem lettuce , salad turnips, green garlic and more!

Bouquet restock!
Also a new product... coffee milk! Lightly sweetened cold brew in whole milk. It's a good one.
Lemon vanilla and plain skyr are back in the farmstand. We have a bunch of cultured cream ready to churn for butter - hopefully we'll get to that tomorrow. I'll update the website when it's in stock.

The first bouquets of the season are in the farmstand today. They feature big beautiful Italian anemones, the very first crop to come out of our new high tunnel.

Cows on grass! It's that time of year again - the cows are now almost exclusively eating spring grass rather than dried hay.
The farmstand is packed full of dairy products, including skyr. We plan to keep it in regular rotation through the rest of the year.
Skyr: plain, passion fruit, lemon vanilla.
Mango lassis
Heavy cream
Yogurt
While milk
Fromage blanc
Créme fraîche

Sweet pea seeds are in the farmstand! This is a mix of tall fragrant varieties in a multitude of colors. Last year they bloomed from June through October for me.
Start seeds inside or in a greenhouse now - they like a long cool start to establish their roots. Then plant outside in early spring with ample nitrogen (I use compost, blood meal and bone meal).

Eggnog is sold out 😭
I thought we would have plenty for the week but folks came out in droves yesterday and wiped us out. I'm so sorry!
We still have lots of cream, plus butter, fromage, and yogurt.
