Weblog Entry
Well, another Michigan Fiber Festival is in the books. We chatted up the Pygora breed to lots of festival goers, sold some yarn, and took a couple workshops. Our two boys, who travelled up there in luxury in the Prius, did great. Mr Bingo, the wether, came away with reserve grand champion wether (aka 2nd place), and our buckling Buckley won grand champion Junior buck! To reward Mr Bingo, he got his first haircut today. I’m not so sure he appreciated it. He will head to his new home this Saturday up in Neptune. Besides that we are trying to get a lot of natural dying done in preparation for the Wool zgathering coming up in Yellow Springs!
As far as garden news… the greens are still on the fritz. Okra is finally going crazy with eggplants right behind them. There’s nothing new this week (though I finally turned on the ordering for some of the peppers and the red cabbage which you might have noticed were in the store. Place your orders or just stop in and shop Tuesday and Friday 2-6:30 at the farm and Saturday 8-12 at the Sidney Farmers Market!
