Champaign, OH:  Winter


It sure been a hard, hard winter…
My feet been draggin’ ‘cross the ground…
And I hope it’s gonna be a long, hot summer…
And a lotta love will be burnin’ bright…
(Winter-Rolling Stones)

I know that so far, this has been our most wintery of weather for the season. But it only takes one blast of cold, one snowfall, to make this warm weather girl already drifting off in thoughts of sun, warmth, days that go on forever.

Until those months come floating back, the best thing we can do is to wrap up, stay warm, dream of sun soaked fun, and make these winter days as easy as possible.

That is where this market helps…why not stay warm, stay local, order the nest local items around, all from the ease of wherever you are hanging until this cold snap passes.

The long hot summer is a ways away but the days of winter can be enjoyable if you know where to look…our little local market of love.

It is Tuesday, we are on the brink of the early evening hours, and we close at 10pm…make your list, get your orders in, go back to dreaming about warmer days:)

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam

Martin's Farmstand:  Winter on the farm


It is cold but there is still lots of cabbage, potatoes, garlic and more in our storage. Remember us if your supply needs replenishing.
It is almost time to plant the tomatoes for the greenhouse. We are mostly finished with planning what should be grown next year and the seed and plants are purchased. A major change in the fields is the move to semi-permanent raised beds for a good portion of the farm. There are many reasons for this change including an increased ability to plant on time even if the weather is adverse. I can also have deeper topsoil in the root zone that is not compacted by the tractor tires.
I have cut some logs out of our woods and milled the lumber I need to build more strawberry carriers. I am also working at closing in the stand building. The goal is to have better and fresher produce because of less sun and wind on the display. We are are also working to set things up better so that our energy can be used to grow good food and love and serve people rather than spending so much work carrying tubs of produce back and forth and in and out.
Andrew is working at some changes to our web presence. We want to develop a website that is as close as possible to giving you a virtual look into our stand so you can see what we have along with prices etc. You should see this toward spring time if we are satisfied with it. Daniel
