A small, diverse permaculture farm (and now, Bakery!) in beautiful SE Minnesota - our dream come true life focused on Local Food, Local Art, Local Music.

Wordless Wednesday: Last Watermelons from the 2010 Garden
We got patchy frost Sunday night. I picked these melons and all the squashes and as many peppers as I could find in the dark when I realized there was a risk of frost. We didn't have much luck with melons last year so didn't intend to plant them this year, but I bought 2 starts at the Farmers Market and got 12 beautiful melons, bigger than basketballs. Yummy!
In September 2008, we dived into our dream of creating a small, sustainable farm. Neither of us has previous farming experience, but we have enthusiasm and many ideas for this little 10-acre farmstead.
