So we have 4 new high tunnels that are ready to have the plastic put on them. And we have two other tunnels already up and running on our farm. All of these high tunnels can get confusing when trying to communicate and differentiate among them all. So we decided they need names. We have 6 tunnels which need their own names. So we thought maybe there was somebody in the CSA with a creative mind to come up with some great names. Any suggestions?

Hoophouse construction invitation Sunday March 6 1:00 pm

Our new hoophouses in pieces.

 

We will be constructing our new hoophouses on Sunday afternoon March 6. We will start around 1:00 though you are welcome to show up later if you need. The weather looks relatively mild at this time.We anticipate spending a few hours on construction. We will have dinner prepared for anyone who would like to stay afterward. If you would like to come help, please, please, please RSVP and give us an idea on what time you plan to arrive. Thanks 

Hooray, we finally had drainage installed in our fields a couple weeks ago and while it created quite a mess we are hopefully it will help our vegetables grow more happily.

Event tonight:
Local Food Fest at the Union Hall in Corning from 5:00-8:00. We will be selling our usual supply of vegetables and promoting the CSA. Come on by and join the summer CSA tonight.Or just pick up your CSA share. I believe there is an admission fee but it is all for a good cause - Cornell Cooperative Extension's promotion of local agriculture.
Also: Saturday we will be at the Painted Post Farmers' Market at Union Hall on Steuben St. from 11:00-3:00. Yes, I know its supposed to be cold, but it is winter after all even though it hasn't felt like it before now.

HI All,
Just a note to let you know that Muddy Fingers Farm will be set up tomorrow (Saturday January 30) at both the Painted Post Farmers' Market at the Union Hall on Steuben St. from 11:00-3:00 and the Ithaca Farmers' Market in the Space@Greenstar from 11:00-2:00.

2016 CSA Membership Form

 Winter Farmers Market in Corning

We are now accepting CSA memberships for the 2016 Season. Please see the link to the right for further information. We are getting excited for the upcoming growing season. As you can see above we still have lots of great vegetables available but we are looking forward to getting planting again.

Two dairy goat does. One is approximately 3 years old and is purebred Saanen. She is somewhat skittish but should be a good milker. The other is a 5-6 month old doeling with Saanen mother and Oberhasli father. Both good dairy lines. Her mother regularly gives us 3/4 gallon/day of milk.

Can be sold bred if preferred. Dairy goats make a great hobby and are great at grazing brushy areas. $250
