161-Polar Vortex at the Farm

It is mid-February 2021 and the Farm is deep in the grip of a Polar Vortex. For us, that means temperatures hovering near 0º with windchills even lower. It is too cold to work outside even though we are chomping at the bit to begin gardening.

Even with the uncooperative weather, we are still able to complete some tasks that move us closer toward Spring and the season opening of the Mercantile.

In this episode, we talk about what we have accomplished and some upcoming next steps. This includes the delivery of the new potting shed this past week.

So even though we can’t be outside, we are making the best use of our time and looking forward to warmer weather.

Until next time,

Donna, Julia and the Felines

160-Course Launch, Gert’s Garden and a Kitten

Once again, it has been a busy week here at Five Feline Farm.

As promised, we launched the long awaited gardening course. It is loaded with videos, tip sheets, discussion forums and downloadable documents. We will add to this throughout the year, so by the time next January rolls around, there will be a full year of gardening content.

If you are interested in enrolling at the “class building” rate, you can do that here.

In this episode we also discuss our plan for Gert’s Garden 2 Go© bags for 2021. Our model will be similar to a CSA in that you will receive a weekly garden share, but different because our customers will not incur any risk. How’s that for a deal. Watch our social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) or make sure you are on our email list for more information. You do need to be within 15 miles of the Farm for delivery.

Last, but not least, we added a new feline member to the household. Ivory Petunia came to live with us from a shelter on Friday and has found her fur-ever home.

Keep coming back, it is going to get interesting.

Until next time,

Donna, Julia and the Felines

159-Garden Course Launch

The day has finally arrived!

Today, February 1, 2021 is the official release date of our new online course “Gardening the Five Feline Farm Way“.

This episode describes our last week of progress toward this year long goal. Plus we discuss the content of the course, how we will be adding to the content and fielding questions.

Gardening the Five Feline Farm Way has a lot of content already, but we will continue to add as the garden season progresses during 2021. The discussion forum will be available for all lessons to interact with us and with other students.

You won’t want to miss getting in on the ground floor before the price goes up.

If you are interested in learning more about gardening, this course will help.

Until next time,

Donna, Julia and the Felines

158-Celebrating Firsts

On this episode we revisit a series of firsts in this business.

First garden, first cookbook, first podcast, first market plans. We discuss how far we have come in the past few years and talk about a few of our plans for the future.

If you haven’t already let us know you are interested in our upcoming gardening course, you can do that here. We will be sending out more information in the next couple of weeks.

Until then, please enjoy this episode.
