Four Roots Farmstead

We’re back at the market and have salad! Come see us from 3-7 at Castle Downs Farmers Market!

What a season!! Our greenhouse flooded, killed most of the cucumbers and peppers. The tomatoes, they’re Grahams and they’re fighters 😉. We are not at a point where we rely on this for our income, so we’re lucky. Thinking of the farmers this season!

Throw back to 3 weeks ago to when it was beautifully sunny and we got our greenhouse cleaned and planted in 4 hours!

Today kicked off our first market of the season, and we’re excited for another summer of growing, gardening, and chatting with all of you.

Come find us every Wednesday from 3:00–7:00 PM Castle Downs Farmers Market. Stop by, say hi, and check out what’s growing!

A little garden update 🌱

The radishes have popped, the lettuce survived the transplant, and we’re trying out nasturtium hanging baskets this year — just waiting for them to fill out a bit more.

Current goal for the season: stay ahead of the weeds.

We’ll see how that goes 😂

A little greenhouse update 🌱

Despite Mother Nature keeping us on our toes lately, things are moving ahead around here.

The greenhouse is filling up, the backyard beds are planted, and we’re finally getting a good look at everything that’s ready for the season ahead.

We’re doing a final inventory of all our plants now and should have our plant sale post up in the next couple of days 👀

A bit of an update from last week’s craziness.

We lost around 500 tomato plants after the cold, despite our best (and slightly heroic) efforts to save them.

Farming is hard.

But if you’ve been following us for a while, you know we don’t sit in the bad news for long. We take a minute, figure out what we can learn, and then get moving again.

Farming isn’t always the highlight post… but we’re still here 🌱

Don’t worry — the next post will be about the 2500 plants that DID survive.

Mother Nature is being rude! But we’re gonna save the plants! Jimmy rigged the greenhouse and here’s to hoping! If you buy plants from us, just know there’s was a lot of love and some swear words in raising them haha
