Fun times in the living room

Dylan discovers the wonders of the accordion.


Miki is an awesome house manager and makes lists of things!


Dylan discovers how to make weird faces.

Marty Anderson and the Goods

So, Miki has gotten herself into a situation. She plays fiddle for a townie band called Marty Anderson and the Goods -- run by lead singer Marty Anderson, his cousin Marty Anderson, and his wife, Marti Anderson.


They play at the Contented Cow in downtown Northfield.


Dylan, Jon and I came to show our support (and maybe drink cider? maybe.)


Miki is embarrassed by our presence, which means we're doing a good job.


Miki does not drink cider. She drinks sugary things.

Harvest Fest

Harvest Fest success! We didn't catch much of it on camera, but we had an excellent bout of leaf pile jumping, apple-hunting, garden harvesting, and sitting around the bonfire.


Lisa and Christina take advantage of the pumpkin carving, with pumpkins and squash grown in our very own garden.




It was colder than normal this year, so we had the musicians perform indoors.


Jon and his sister Adrianna played a set together.

The Bulk Order

The bulk order came! Miki is in love with the bulk order.

In one fell swoop...

...a giant zucchini was turned into bread and muffins.
The muffins were for Food Truth's table at the activities fair, but the loaf remained in Farm House, and was mysteriously devoured between the hours of midnight and 8:13 am. David?? Alas, who could resist warm zucchini bread with chocolate chips?

It's almost that time...

Summer has been a great adventure! I spent mine working in Columbia, Missouri for the US Geological Survey during the week and Chert Hollow Farm on the weekends. I've had fun and learned a lot, but I'm excited to be close to experiencing the wonder of fall at Farm House for the third (and sadly, last) time.


Fall 2008 Olaf Expedition

We've had a lot of turnover compared to the last couple years, so we'll have quite a few new people bringing their experiences and talents into the fold. Miki Beavis and I will be sharing management duties, which we'll be slaving away at in the upcoming weeks. At any rate, prepare for some actual updates to start coming your way soon, from the oldies and hopefully some new voices as well!
