As many of you know, it has been a tough two years with drought, family demands and medical needs, and limited capital for operations.  However, we love farming and the challenges it presents, so we are back for 2013!!

We named our operations many years ago, "BllackSheep Enterprises" with Pat and I being black sheep of our families because we grow using organic methods for, vegetables, fruit, food grade grains, and livestock.  We also have a pair of black lambs this spring.  Both full blood Shetlands, the male of these twins definitely has the greying gene, but the female may not.  This means she may "stay" black.  (Picture is when the first born was about 15 minutes old.)

So - changes for the year-
Pat has cut back to only the farm to give it the attention it deserves.
We will be doing a CSA for 10 to 12 subscribers.  Details coming!
We will have/do have free range chicken eggs for sale.
We are starting to get Duck eggs for sale to specialty bakers..
We plan on having Turkeys for Thanksgiving and Geese for Christmas.
Watch for all the benefits from being in our CSA.
