Winter
is over, Spring is here!
Never have we wanted winter
to be more over. What a hard, long and drawn out winter we have had here
in southern Wisconsin. We can finally say it is over. But how did
everyone fare? At the Patch we managed well. Our chickens stayed
comfy cozy in their newly insulated coop. And surprise of all surprises
we were actually able to keep their water from freezing! But the chickens
are extra happy now to be outside exploring and feasting on things both
popping out of the ground and hiding beneath it.
Our asparagus continues to be fruitful but the season may not last too much longer. Be sure to make plans soon to come by and pick some up before the season ends.
Which leads me to our strawberry season update. The strawberries are growing in size, but nothing red quite yet. We anticipate our season to begin sometime between June 12th and June 18th. Please check back for a more accurate opening date.
Please join us in eating fresh from the Patch!
Currently we are open 9-7pm.
Items available:
Pure Wisconsin Maple Syrup
Local Non-Pasteurized Honey
Asparagus
Rhubarb (please call ahead to pre-order)
Farm Fresh Eggs from our free ranging chickens
We hope to see you in the Patch soon!
