Also farmers need a little bit of time off. My parents’ 40th wedding anniversary we celebrated in some of the oldest agricultural areas in the world.
The pyramids are an amazing site to visit. The scale of the pyramids really blows you away when you stand next to it , or walk around it on a camel.

Winter has come early. The first snow of the season has sparked the Niseko powder virus. Now with 6 months of white landscapes and cold ahead of us, we all look ahead to those magical turns in deep Niseko powder.

These little tomatoes were our favourites this year. The ultimate healthy snack. Always looking for some new varieties to grow, these flavour bombs will surely return next year.

Last farmers market of the season. At Sapporo station for one more day, this Thursday ( 7th). Sapporo marche has found a good spot right in front of Sapporo Station, south exit. Hopefully this will continue next year as well.

Autumn is here. Sun, rain, sun rain. We are harvesting our pumpkins in between all the rain showers. Jenn pulled all these Halloween pumpkins out of the field today. If anyone wants these for their Halloween celebrations let me know and we can send them or deliver.

September and time for digging up our potatoes. Always a bit of a surprise to see what’s underneath all that dirt. We started out with our organic potatoes to get them ready for the Organic Festival in Sapporo this weekend.
The Toya and Kita Akari looked good, above expectation. The excessive rains this summer didn’t do much to please our spuds. Their life got terminated a bit early, but the yield was pretty good.
New potatoes are delicious, so come and get some this weekend in Sapporo or come and get them on the farm.

A hungry goat is an angry goat. So to prevent that they got us working hard to make sure they got enough to eat during our long white winters.
I was not easy to dry grasses this summer with the enormous amout of rain we have had. But this week has been really nice and some true Hokkaido weather returned. The weather we all love so much.
Busy with a million things, but with more new rain coming we had to get the straw bales in, otherwise they would go bad. At least the goats will have plenty to eat and there may be enough left to make a start at the straw bale house i want to build.

Chilis come in a wide variety of shapes, colours and hotness. These chilis make a great border or pot plant and are handy to have around when you want to spice up your life a bit.

The lack of sunlight and dry days didn’t do much good to our purple friends here. Their season got terminated a bit prematurely, but we got some others coming on the way for autumn.
With the warm and wet weather from the past 6 weeks lots of leafy green are struggling and sending prices up. Even the fish are struggling and fishermen are not really catching any fish. Sanma, usually a cheapy, is rated at ¥800 and scallops and other shell fish are looking to get pretty pricey over the next months.
