Snow On The Way — But First We Weeded and Harvested

Snow On The Way — But First We Weeded and Harvested

by Douglas Brown | Apr 28, 2017 | Black Cat Bistro, black cat farm, bramble & hare, farmers market, harvest

A Glorious Day of Harvesting for Tomorrow’s Market

by Douglas Brown | Apr 7, 2017 | Black Cat Bistro, black cat farm, bramble & hare, farmers market, harvest

Seventy-two degrees and breezy. Robin’s egg skies, with cottony clouds. Plants luscious and strong, due to the recent rains and snow. This is our kind of harvest day. Friday is always a busy harvest day for us — between Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights in the...
