Feed the Animals and Weed the Crops!

At the Pea Planting session, I received many requests from kids to feed the animals. But since the animals had been fed earlier that morning, we couldn’t feed them again. But then the idea was born that a Green Cow Animal Feeding session should be organized. This Sunday, April 17th, 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. we will be holding a Green Cow Animal Feeding session.

We will be feeding the cows, pigs, chickens, and worms and learning about what they like to eat. The session will begin promptly at 8:30 am.

After the feeding, we will also be demonstrating how to make Rosemary Sea Salt and learning about the many uses for spring herbs that you are receiving in your CSA boxes.

Next Sunday, April 24th, 8:30 a.m. to !0:30 a.m. we will be holding a Green Cow Weeds and Weeding session. We will harvest edible weeds and also weed the pea, potato, and peanut fields. Please bring gloves and a hat !

The farm is also calling for donations of dvds or cds to use in natural pests control. We tie them up to a scarecrow and have found it to be most effective in preventing birds from eating our planted seeds and sprouts.

In addition, please bring over any kitchen scraps for our new bamboo worm box. And if you’ve got any old grains or past the shelf-life but still edible foods you need to clear out, we can use it for the chickens. If you have any non-edible, but better for the compost piles than the landfills, please bring and feed to our compost piles. If you cannot make these sessions, but have items to contribute, please give it to our driver when he makes your weekly delivery. Please RSVP by signing up by Friday April 15th for the Sunday, April 17th session ; by Friday, April 22nd for the Sunday, April 24th session.

    Hi! Good food--raw and cooked--is my passion.   Greencow Farm was started because I believe that no matter where you live, wholesome, fresh, and organically grown food should be readily accessible.  Our farm supplies ingredients for Mrs. Shanen's cafe, our family, and CSA members.  Spread the goodness!
