Greening up in April!!

It’s been a while since I’ve sent out an update.  As you can imagine things are getting busy around The Green Ranch.  It’s been another big day, and getting late so I'll make this one short!  April has been amazing!!  We have spinach coming up all ready, green onions planted, tomorrow we will be planting carrots, lettuce, onions, and radish.  It’s exciting to think of an early start to the season!  Today we harvested our first micro greens from the greenhouse.  The green house is full of greens now, and we have been staging production so from now on we should be into a steady supply of mixed micro greens and pea shoots.  We had a good feed of micro greens tonight and I must say they were amazing! 

We have some very exciting additions to our product line coming up.  By the end of May we should have our first bison ready to sell.  We have teamed up with a local producer (8 miles from our ranch) to be able to offer bison as another meat alternative.  To start with the Bison will be only available through our website ordering.  Let us know if you would like more information.  There are a few more products that we are working on so keep tuned!  We have a great supply of fresh free range eggs now, we have 3 producers supplying us so our egg supply is much more consistent now.  You can order the eggs right online, or let us know if you are interested in having a weekly or biweekly schedule for delivery and we can work something out!  We have started selling whole Rabbit from Pine View Farms - you will find the rabbit at the farmers market. 

Over the next few weeks we are going to start profiling our dedicated producers in a series of newsletters.  One exciting addition to our producer list is an urban farm right in Regina!!  Pete and Shannon will be growing certain vegetables for us to help with our work load.  Look for more info in the next issue.

Hope you are all enjoying our summer like spring!!!
