Fall is here.

This has been a beautiful week of blue skies and cool weather.  The leaves are changing colors, adding to the feeling of fall.  Teresa decorated the porch with pumpkins and gourds from the garden.  The apples have been falling from the tree like crazy.  We're getting overloaded with apple sauce and are now saving up apples to make some apple cider.  We acquired Teresa's family heirloom apple press from the 1800's this year and are excited to put it to work (photos to come). 


Eric's been busy all week cutting wood and working in the garden.  He planted a garden bed for the winter with kale, beets, lettuce, carrots, and garlic.  The next project is to build the low tunnels to keep the frost out.  We also dug up 30-40 pounds of potatoes this week!  Our farm keeps right on chugging along.
