Events

We have had a wonderful response to listing our farm as a Pick Your Own Farm.  I do want to remind everyone that PYO days will be harvest-dependent and that we are a new farm with new seeds and seedlings in the ground.  We will list the PYO days on this blog and on our FaceBook page.  Like us on FaceBook at Scasta Farm so that you can keep up with the most current information.

We are going to double our strawberry plants as the requests for strawberries has been phenomenal.  The new blackberry plants are doing really well and we have lots of baby peaches! 

We will also host small groups for activities that bring the classroom to the farm.  We will be hosting the Angels of Faith Preschool from Living Hope Church of the Nazarene this summer.  They will have a plot of their own and will learn all about caring for a garden in a holistic manner.  We also have a little group of Girl Scouts that will be coming to the farm in June.  They are anxious to learn about chickens and eggs.

If you are interested in an activity at the farm, you can contact us at scastafarm@gmail.com.  Forms for activities will be emailed to you.  I am working on finding a way to put them on this blog.  If I find a way to do it I will put up a post to let you know how to access the forms.  In the meantime, just email me to schedule your event and the forms will be sent.

My next post should be very interesting.  I am reading a great book about raising chickens and it is called Chick Days by Jenna Woginrich.  It is a delightful book!  We get our baby chicks in May so be ready to learn right along with us as we raise our "little girls" to egg layin' mommas!

Hasn't this spring weather been lovely.  We pray that you and yours were safe during the recent tornadoes here in the Dallas area.

Enjoy these Easter tulips!  I am excited about taking a photography class this week and hope you enjoy even more beautiful pictures.  Happy Farming!
