Drop in or stay a while to help print a few festive cards, tshirts, or beaded jewelry or garlands to sell at holiday markets. There will be some light bites, hot chocolate, and a few craft stations to ensure the market teams are stocked and ready to rock. If you are crafty and would like to contribute some of your own handmade goods to the sales as a donation, please let Emma, Kari, or Schontonia know!

Hello Mustard Seed Farm Friends,

Somehow it's already July, which is an action packed time here on the farm. Here are a few highlights of what's going on this month.
We are still trying to get all our crops planted! We managed to get a row of cucumbers and another of pole beans planted last week, but we are very behind on getting fall crops like winter squash in the ground. It's been a challenging year because we've been very short on labor, but we are doing our best and trying to do lots of creative decision-making.
