​Hi Farmsters,
The store will be open Saturday from 9 until 1. Peck O’Dirt Bakery is back up and running and will be offering pumpkin and blueberry muffins, scones, cookies, and brownies. Calzones will also be available. I know they are predicting snow, but we will be open either way. It is February, the month when we celebrate Groundhog Day. BTW, does anybody know any good Groundhog Day jokes?… I feel like I keep hearing the same ones over and over and over again.
There are plenty of eggs and the meat freezer has been resupplied. If you need apps for the big game Sunday think deviled eggs and chicken wings. Soup-er Bowl Sunday is the best time to stew over football scores! Chiles and stews are great options for this weather this time of year.
We are still in a very tight money situation, so any memberships you can do now will be very helpful. The cold weather is driving up our greenhouse fuel bills. I am sure you are all confronting the same issue at home if you are wintering over in Massachusetts. I am hoping for a warm-up. In the meantime, I will turn on the TV news for the hot air.

Cold Weather
Hi Farmsters,
The store will be open Saturday from 9 until 1. With another storm possible on Sunday, it is again time to load up on eggs and sausages. We have been burning a lot of firewood to stay warm. It is too cold for me outside, but I get warm in front of the TV. AI tells me “anger makes you feel hot because it triggers a "fight-or-flight" stress response, releasing adrenaline and cortisol. This causes blood vessels to constrict and redirects blood flow to muscles, increasing your heart rate and body temperature, often leading to a flushed face, sweating, and a physical sensation of heat.”
I feel that my greatest accomplishment is not saying what I am feeling. It is very frustrating to go online and see what people are saying that just has no basis in fact. I felt months ago that I needed to learn more about the operations of online media. It has been months since I bought the book “How To Scam People Online”, but it still has not yet arrived.
Besides online social media, there is useful technology such as GPS. There are still people that call the farm store asking for directions; most ask for the street address to enter into their phone. Some want actual directions. I sometimes wonder what happens to these people who asked me for directions. My phone has a GPS for seniors; it not only gives me directions but reminds me why I wanted to get there.
Even in the cold it is worth coming to the farm to see the animals. You learn a lot about life watching the animals on the farm. The rabbits are always moving jumping all over their pen and on average live for 8 years. Our dogs continuously run around the paddock, barking at everything, and live for about 15 years. Peanut, the tortoise, hardly does anything and lives for 150 years. Lesson learned.
Hope to see you on Saturday.
Farmer Ron
