Hey Amazon, I've put on my delivery directions for packages to be dropped off in the mailbox by the road. There is a reason why.

I've had to learn a lot about bugs to farm vegetables

The new section of train track in Corwhin made it into the news. Only it's already being built. Despite the township having a stringent site alteration bylaw, this fill is poor quality. There's enough fill laid for 80 rail cars to be parked on or more if there's 2 new tracks.

August is when a lot of crops come ready. The travel today for this week's farmshare/CSA pickup has a lot to offer. My customers will be eating well.

[Barclay C Nap @CorwhinProduce]

Fields full of future food and clouds building for the next rain fall. You can't ask for more.

I had a young gent dropped into the farm this morning looking for a produce grower. He's getting produce from the Food Terminal, but he wants to get large amounts directly from the farmers. I'm a small market gardener, I can't help him. Would anyone know who I could pass him to?

First time using a paperpot planter. Very slick.

Came across a potato planter being loaded near Shelbourne. No one was taking a lunch break.

Leaf compost has been worked into my rhubarb patches for extra organic matter. The years I don't do it I really notice a decrease in growth. With a few good rainfalls, there should be a great crop come the May long weekend.

I passed by this field near Palmerston and had to do a double take. It looks like beans from a distance, but it's only April.

A lot of interest from the public in Guelph Eramosa Twp to participate in the public meeting for a rezoning request of a 77 acre farm field to a transport truck and trailer parking lot.
