Farmers' Markets

Get out to a farmers' Market as soon as possible. We will be at one today in Las Campanas from Noon to 3 and tomorrow in ElDorado from 3-7. They are critical to local economies and small job creation as these are some hardworking folks doing some very important work.

We will have fresh rhubarb, culinary herbs, radishes, salad mix, cilantro, eggs and more!

Planting Late Spring Crops

Today we planted Garlic, Arugula, Read and Green Mustards, Chard, Parsley and French Breakfast Radish.

Spinach

This week we have a lot of spinach. It is sweet and tender. Great raw or cooked. We like it in an omelet  with onions and garlic. We will harvest some Friday for the Santa Fe Farmers Market this Saturday as well as taking special orders for a custom box of produce and eggs. Also available: scallions, radishes, carrots, spring green garlic, arugula, chard, cilantro and chives.

Thanks for reading the blog and supporting small scale agriculture.

Spring Time at Revolution Farm

Revolution Farm in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains at 7,200 foot elevation. Growing food for the community.

The hens are laying about three dozen eggs a day now. 

Radishes are just one spring crop we have coming in right now.

The big egg was a double yolker! 

Seedlings getting a head start on the others we will direct seed soon.

D.I.Y. Greenhouse

 All the lumber and windows were free. This whole project cost us less than $100.
