What amazing weather we're having, everything is growing like crazy and all the trees are in bloom! I just can't believe this is March. Even the potatoes have sprouted already!
I spent most of the day today weeding flower beds and transplanting perennials. I'm looking forward to seeing them bloom. Tomorrow I'll be transplanting trees and bushes.
We have lots of tomato plants that are hardening off in the hoophouse. By next week they should be ready to start planting in the ground. I'll be bringing quite a few to the market in April. We also have pepper seedlings that have finally sprouted, it seemed to take forever. I guess I'm just overanxious because it's already so hot. It's been getting over 100 degrees in the hoophouse--with the sides open! I forgot to open it Saturday morning and when I got home at noon it was 118 degrees in there!

We had a great day at the market on Saturday!
It was so nice to see everyone. What a beautiful sunny day it turned out to be. We hope you enjoyed all the wonderful swiss chard and kale. I'm anxious to get feedback on the new Gluten-Free Mixed-Grain Flour.

Market tomorrow! Come join us!
We'll be at the St. Louis Community Farmers' Market tomorrow from 9am to 1pm.
We're bringing all the usual items. We have lots of bright, beautiful veges. The Rainbow Swiss Chard and all the different varieties of Kale are loving this weather and the lack of bugs and are growing like crazy. They both taste so wonderful we've been eating them almost everyday. I've been combining them together and adding chopped onions, seasalt and a little butter. Mmmmmmmm delicious! Get some for yourself tomorrow!
I also finally decided to let everyone try my Gluten-Free Mixed-Grain Flour. We've been cooking gluten-free now for a couple of months and I had to come up with a good flour mix. After lots of requests, I'm bringing some for others to try tomorrow. I'll be waiting for comments and suggestions.
We will also have our Kimker Hill Farm raised, grass (& tomato)-fed, antibiotic-free, hormone-free, beef again. If you missed it last month, you have another chance tomorrow. It's available for a limited time, it will be a while before we raise more.
Danny will have his candles, I'll have handmade soap, freshly-ground flours, mixes, grains, jellies, jams, gift baskets and more!
Hope to see you!
