Barre, Ma. and Arlington, Ma. Farmers Markets have been very good this year. I am working on enlarging my chicken coop for next year and making more and more pottery this winter. Those will be the main focus. But, the value in free range eggs is the quantity that you keep so the number is definitely limiting. There are only so many you can keep track of when they are running all over the farm! There is always the threat of wildlife attack so the yards can not be too wide open or too unfenced. I hope to be able to supply at least one market next year with healthy, happy chicken eggs!
In the meantime, the markets will go on through the month of October and I will have available at the markets, Lamb, Turkey, Duck, Goat, Free Range Duck and Chicken Eggs, Home Spun Yarn and Carded Wool from Sheep and Wool from Llamas as well as Redware Pottery with slip decoration. Also I still have Chicken Poop in bushel size bags that will be great for the fall garden or compost pile.
