People have been asking us “how soon for the vegetables?” Here is a view from one of our gardens to see how far along they are.

Over the next few weeks, we should have more and more vegetables ready for market, they are getting closer! By mid July expect most of our vegetables to be at the market and by August nearly all of them.

Jake and Christian are weeding the squash patch behind our house.(Jake is using a new-to-us tiller.)
I'm a bit fascinated by the 2 fawns with the zoomies in the Shaman Blue popcorn field with their mom.🍿 They look like they are racing the tractor.

Many of you have told us that we have THE BEST POPCORN EVER, but did you know that we have partnered with another Wisconsin small business? Pop's Kettle Corn in Muskego, is helping us bring you delicious, locally grown popcorn in a new way.
Our popcorn is BETTER THAN EVER, popped, seasoned, and ready to enjoy. Pick some up tomorrow morning at the farmers' markets in Madison, Oshkosh, Beloit, & Oconomowoc.

Our popcorn is now in FESTIVAL FOODS in their Fort Atkinson location! We have been working with to help distribute our popcorn into more stores.

The Fort Atkinson location is the test store for our popcorn. If it sells well there it will hopefully be in ALL of the Festival Foods locations moving forward!! If you are in the Fort Atkinson area stop by to grab some and share that we are there!!

The van and the trucks are all loaded and ready for the markets tomorrow! We will be at the Oshkosh, Beloit, Oconomowoc, and Dane County Farmers Markets!

We got a beautiful rain today, which all our crops desperately needed. Fresh vegetables are a few weeks away!

This field is about as dry and dusty as I’ve ever seen. We had a small section of land unplanted so we are planting a few extra pumpkin plants tonight. Hoping tomorrow’s rain actually shows up, as all our crops need it!

Never would have thought when we shared that video of our wheat field 2-3 feet underwater in mid April that in 6 weeks it be so extremely dry. Wettest April on record and the driest May on record for our area.

Russ captured this picture of our Yellow Hulless popcorn field on Sunday evening. Our area could use a gentle shower.
