A hungry goat is an angry goat.

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.

Summertime.

By dennis

August in Hokkaido and Niseko Green Farm is looking rather green.   Doing the transition from conventional farming to fully organic is quite interesting, to see how all you produce is responding to grow the natural way. Not relying on the chemical boosts means sometimes slower growth, lower yields, later harvests and some more disappointments here and there.  But when things do work out it is hard to beat the taste of organic vegetables right of the land.

Thank you for Supporting Niseko Green farm and buying or produce. We are working hard to get better and better.

Enjoy your summer!

In bloom.

The potatoes are still in bloom and giving the Niseko region a bit of colour beside the vibrant green. Niseko Green Farm potatoes are still available and for sale now at the Sekka veggie stand.
