Would love to get some lettuce and microgreens sold today. Both would go great with warm soup! Eggs, peppers, goat milk soap, and firewood available as well.

Beautiful day to stop by for fresh lettuce, microgreens, eggs, the last of the peppers, and just a few green tomatoes. The peppers and tomatoes are grown here in healthy soil with no chemicals.

With the recent rain and Halloween fire pits approaching we wanted to make sure Lincoln's fire wood is dry enough to burn.

Just to help the damp wood get started grab a free fire wood starter stick from in the stand.

Even with only four logs we were able to get some hot coals.

Lincoln's firewood sales operate on the honor system. He has a wooden box by the firewood for money or has his own Venmo information posted.

He doesn't bundle the wood. Back up to the pile and load as much as you want. Pay what is fair.

We have an opportunity to continue offering locally grown lettuce (grown indoors hydroponiclly) and microgreens throughout the winter. We just need to know if there is enough interest. We need to know if our customers want the lettuce and microgreens enough that they will make a special trip here when we don't have a lot of other produce to offer.

If you are a person who might be interested how often would you likely come for these two products?

Lettuce, microgreens, peppers, cherry tomatoes, a few mini pumpkins, and firewood. We will have more peppers soon but we are trying to give them a little more time to turn colors.

If you rake up fall leaves and want to be sure they actually get composted (not buried in a landfill too deeply to aerobically decompose), please consider bringing them here for us to put to good use as mulch and then compost. Just put the bags of leaves anywhere by the stand and we will get them down to the garden.

The only request is that they not have been picked up with a mower (they would have grass mixed in that has likely had yard fertilizer and pesticides/herbicides exposure).

If you have a hay bale you used to decorate the porch, drop it off and it will become bedding for chickens (hopefully it is dry on the porch), then, once soiled, compost, and once composted into rich soil that will grow vegetables, and the cycle will go on.

When organic materials are buried too deeply they rot anerobically, producing Methane, which is 21 times worse for the ozone layer than CO2. We invite you to be a part of our humble attempt to do a small part. Regularly we remind our kids: Think globally but act locally. Overwhelmed by bad news of catastrophic problems of a global magnitude, problems of immense proportions, we can easily give up and become complacent. "What can I do in the face of all this?" We cannot fix the huge mess.

However, if everyone does small things locally, the bigger things will resolve under the collective power of small, local efforts---and it goes a long way to heal the feelings of powerlessness. You cannot alone fix a massive problem, but one small local problem is yours to fix today, and doing that has collective and therapeutic power.
