Wintertime on the farm

The Ice Cap fields with Mt Currie in the background

We've had some snow and things are pretty frozen up now; it really feels like winter is setting in. We still have a lot of veggies to sell in our cold storage, and in the field we still have spinach, leeks and brussels sprouts, but the actual field work is winding down. However we will be selling veggies at the Vancouver Winter Farmer's Market at Nat Bailey Stadium until around early February or so. The busy market schedule and Harvest Box season has died down, so now we start planning for next growing season, ordering seeds, servicing tractors, pumps, implements and everything else. Later this week we'll butcher a couple dozen chickens. The pace of our work certainly changes with the season, but even in the dead of winter, the farm to-do list can start to pile up if one doesn't keep at it. We love this time of year though, we get to reflect on how things went over the past growing season, and its always exciting to make plans for next year!
