FARM NEWS (5 Notes)
#1 - No Nelson Delivery This Week
|
There will be no Nelson delivery this week. Sorry folks! We likely won't be back on this cycle of deliveries until April, maybe March 30th.
|
Its almost spring break! wild. Time flies when you're trying to get ready for a growing season while raising a family, a flock of birds and baking your heart out. Imagine that.
|
We're excited to be moving into this new season, enjoying some more warmer days and lots of days up trees as we get into pruning and preparation. Our team is growing as well, which feels nice. We're excited to have welcomed Rich to the team who is helping us to manage our gardens and our site. We will be welcoming a couple more familiar and helpful faces as well... the buzz is real.
|
The name of the game this season is 'foundation' we are working to build a solid foundation upon which we can grow and evolve... and the biggest part of that is finding yourself a solid team that you can rely on. We think we're well on our way... and that feels a little like a big warm hug.
|
#3 - Pre-Order Here for pickup on Saturday March 15th.
|
Pre-Orders are now open for all fresh micro-bakery sourdough products. Please click this link: https://forms.gle/5QNAzk283RTPKFB26 to place your pre-orders. If the form is not accessible for you, please just reply to this note or send me a message and I'll put it in for you.
|
We will be taking orders until Thursday evening. I will bake extra items for folks who want to pop in and see what we've got.
|
Pickup will begin at 10am on Saturday at the Farm Stand for any items ordered this week. Please do not come before 10am on Saturday. I am often baking until the very last minute, I'm tied to the oven... and need all the time to get things set up. I will have your pre-ordered items in bags with your names on them. Any other loose items on the table will be available for sale.
|
#4 - Feature Bagels This Week - We're going with the tried and true favourites.
|
This week bagel options will be:
|
- Simple with Seeds
- Cheese - These are $2.50 each because cheese is expensive.
- Everything (all the seeds + garlic and onion)
We're going to put out a few little cards in the farm stand this week. One of them is just a contact card, so you can keep our info all in one place. The other is about our bulk feed program. If you, your friends or family raise chickens in the area, we invite you to grab a card or two and share it around. We appreciate the word of mouth very much.
|
Things are continuing to pickup! In our survey, the biggest ask was that we lay more eggs... and our hens are certainly delivering. We're getting a slow and steady increase everyday which is a nice thing to be seeing after all these months of feeding all these birds. Because the birds are older, they seem to be moving into larger eggs more quickly. Wins all around in the egg department this week.

Our address is 655 Ferguson Rd. As you drive down the driveway you will pass some old stables. Just beyond the stables is an open area you can park in. Our Farm Stand Cabin is located on the right (north side). You will need to head down the pathway and continue around to the front of the building and enter the cabin off the front deck.
Friendly reminder, things are still a little rough around the edges. Please bare with us as we refurbish and get our little stand in shape!
|
We love feedback! Please feel free to reach out and let us know what you think of any of the products we have on offer.
|
Payment is through the honour system. We will have a cash box on the table. If you do not have cash you can e-transfer to emily@growwild.com. All proceeds from our sales go back into the farm.
