Green Houses and The Chickens

I don't know if Anna is going to do what Lizzie did or not but this is the started greenhouse that is closer to the house.  Closer to the house for easy access.  They will be adding a stove to keep the tiny seedlings warm in the winter.  It also helps with germination.

This greenhouse will have 250 plus tomato plants coming soon.

But right now the chickens are scratching and pooping which are two great things for the soil.

They are even laying eggs right by the door so there is no gathering to be done.

John moves the greenhouse to different places on the land so that the chickens can do their job with the soil.  And believe it or not he can move it by himself and a few good 2x4's.

A note from Rue...'Looking back since the first year of the CSA things have surely had their ups and downs. We have seen some great seasons and some that were a bit harder. Last year in particular was a pretty rough year for those growing the produce and also for  all of us CSA members. Overall it was the roughest year Cedarmore has had since it started. I know this was frustrating to our family and many of you. I have talked to the new owners John and Anna about where the CSA is heading in the future. They really have a strong desire to excel in the way they run the CSA. There is a strong emphasis being put on making sure that there is enough produce available to pack everyone’s box full every week and also on the quality of that produce. I can’t guarantee you that will always happen, but I can tell you that John and Anna, their helpers and I will do everything we can to make that happen. I have really enjoyed this CSA over the years and it has been great to be able to help with communications between the CSA members and the Amish community. I also wanted to let you all know that Cedarmore has a new pick up location in Liberty Township at 4449 Squaw Valley Drive Liberty Twp, OH 45011. If any of you have questions please send me an email at CedarmoreFarm@gmail.com. I’ll be glad to talk to you.'
