What Is CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)?
In essence the purchase of a farm "Share" gives the consumer fresh local produce all season long. By commiting to buy the vegetables, the consumer receives delicious, freshly picked, local produce at below the retail cost and the farmer reduces the time and money spent on marketing during the season and receives more of the actual food dollar. The consumer also caries some risk with the farmer, but also benefits. For example, if pollination is poor in the squash field, there will be few squash, but another crop will be more bountiful. A "Share" is basically like a subscription in that you pay up front (February) and then when the vegetables and strawberries are ripe, they are harvested, cleaned, and delivered/picked-up the same day, which guarantees the share members the finest quality available!
Why Join A CSA?

Reduce packaging, distribution and transportation waste, and your carbon footprint!
Broaden your food horizons by sampling some unusual varieties with recipes which we gladly share, and increase your dinning enjoyment.
Live a healthier life Studies now show food that travels less is more nutritional than food that has traveled cross country or internationally.
Support a local family farm, that, in turn, supports other local businesses and labor, while practicing healthy land stewardship and ensuring clean green space in Vermont.
Learn about how your food is grown by visiting the farm and build a healthy new link to your community.

Our CSA Offerings
We offer two types of CSA share. You can choose to pick up a prepared box of produce each week at Newport Natural Foods (on Main Street in Newport, VT), or use your share to purchase items whenever you like at our farm stand during our regular hours of operation.
Members who pick-up at Newport Natural receive a pre-packed box of vegetables (you have an option for choosing your vegetables for your box!) on either Monday or Thursday afternoons from mid June through October. A delivery fee is added to the share cost to cover the expense of preparing and delivering boxes each Monday or Thursday. Those members who pick-up at the farm use their share to shop at the farm stand. These members also receive a 20% reduction on their tab!
Members shopping at the farmstand may apply their CSA share amount and their 20% discount towards all of our farmstand products. This includes all our own products (produce, eggs, flowers, jams, honey, plants) and the products we carry from other producers (organic yogurt, cheese, salad dressings, seeds, and maple syrup).
Other Perks For CSA Members
Included in your membership is the ability to pick your own green beans, yellow wax beans, and Edamame soy beans at no extra cost (please note your interest in the sign-up form).

The Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) takes a whole farm approach to conservation efforts by identifying natural resources problems and providing technical and financial assistance to solve those problems. For example, CSP can look at ways to address the amount of soil lost; mitigate the impact of excess water; reduce the contribution of agricultural operations to airborne soil particles and greenhouse gas emissions; improve the cover, food, and water available for domestic and wildlife species; or promote energy efficiencies for on-farm activities.
Similar to the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, CSP is used for a wide range of practices that address natural resource concerns while improving agricultural operations. If applied for, an NRCS conservation planner will have a one-on-one consultation to evaluate current management systems in place and work with producers to select new activities that meet the producers’ objectives.
Only individuals are eligible recipients.
Approx Annual Funding Amount
The program is funded at $1 billion in FY 2023. The Inflation Reduction Act additionally invested $3.25 billion into CSP.
Cost Share Requirements
Payments vary by practice and type of contract. Three types of contracts are available:
- Annual contract payments: provides payment to maintain existing conservation based on land uses and NRCS assessment of existing stewardship at the time of enrollment.
- Supplemental payments: provides payment for adopting one of two systems: (1) adopting or improving a resource-conserving crop rotation, or (2) adopting advanced grazing management.
- Minimum contract payments: in any year the total contract amount is below a rate NRCS determines equitable, based on participant effort required to meet contract requirements, NRCS may provide a minimum annual payment of $1,500.
As a competitive grant program, CSP contract applications are available throughout the year, though application ranking dates can vary state-by-state. Contact your local NRCS field office to initiate assistance.
Contact your local NRCS field office for information on your state’s process.
This program is covered under the Justice40 Initiative.


Fruits with focus on the nature and environment!
We in the Daniels family have 2 farms on the sunny Aland Islands, that have the most hours of sunshine in the Nordic countries and a climate with long warm autumns that are ideal for fruit growing.
On our farm in Västanträsk, a family farm passed on since 1724 (11 generations) we grow about 15ha of apples and 2,5ha pears. Our newest farm in Åttböle with 20ha of apples is situated about 10 km from our main village.
In Västanträsk we have our sorting / packing house (see the movie under the "Fruit growing” section), our largest regular cold storage, 4 rooms of ULO (Ultra Low Oxygen) storage, staff quarters etc. Our total cold storage capacity is about 800 tons, including 350 tons that´s in the ULO rooms.
In Västanträsk we have the past few years renewed a lot by taking away the old varieties and started planting newer varieties that have better taste and look, and do not need as much spraying.
The farm in Åttböle, bought in 1987 we began planting apples in 2010 and plantings was completed in 2013. It was made for organic production from scratch, which means apple varieties that are made to
maintain good quality with less spraying. During the first three years we grew whole Åttböle organically, but unfortunately the market in Finland was not yet mature for the amount of organic apples we produced.
So now we grow Åttböle conventional, according to IP (Integrated Production) standard, as well as our other fruits. Which means that you only spray when there is a great need for it. But if the market changes and demand increases the coming years, we are happy to change back to organic again!
Besides growing apples and pears, we also rent cottages, have forestry and beekeeping.
The years we grew organically we learned that the best pest control is to have the nature on our side, in the form of beneficial insects, birds etc. that can help keep pests away without any chemicals! Therefore, we have put up hundreds of birdhouses to attract the small birds like tomtits, chaffinches, flycatchers, sparrows etc. because they eat large amounts of pests every year (larvae etc.). Other beneficial insects are ladybugs and especially earwigs who eat aphids, psyllids, eggs and small larvae of butterflies and mites, which make up most of the damage on the fruits. For them to be attracted to the orchard and stay there, we have straw bales, hundreds of small boxes (see picture) and thousands of bags with straw inside the orchards used for housing for the beneficial insects.
Besides taking care of beneficial animals, we also use pheromone confusion against codling moth and also many other moths so we can reduce the damage in an organic way. So we can avoid spraying with chemicals to keep them under control! This means in practical terms that you hang up about 1000pcs of cords per hectare, soaked in the smell from codling moth females. Which means that the entire orchard smell female and males become so confused that they can´t find a female to mate! It is completely non-toxic and approved in organic farming.
Obviously, we have drip irrigation everywhere, that normally lies on the ground. But in most of our orchards they are tied up a little bit above the ground. In that way we can work the soil under the trees with a special machine to the tractor which we had when we grew organically, to reduce the chemical weed control!
Fruitgrower and beekeeper Ben-Erik Daniels has placed out "canisters" as housing for earwigs and other beneficial insects that hunts aphids and other vermin during the the night in fruitorchards. Also wild bees, so called solitary bees like it in these straw filled "hives"


In a world where demand is high, farmers have to do whatever they can to grow enough vegetables to meet it. Sometimes, this leads to the use of nitrogen fertilizers, as it helps the vegetables to grow faster. Making more vegetables in a shorter amount of time is great. But the risk is that some vegetables may have higher levels of nitrate than others causing them to be unsafe to eat. This can also occur when vegetables don’t have the sunlight exposure. Nitrate levels in some vegetables can build up if they’re grown in low light environments.
Nitrate poisoning can be a serious problem and research has proven that it can lead it cancer. Methemoglobinemia is a blood disorder that inhibits the distribution of oxygen throughout the body and can be caused by nitrate poisoning. So don’t take the risk! Ensure that you are providing yourself and your family with vegetables and fruits that are not only nutrient dense, but also safe to eat.


The disappearing pollinator population is a phenomenon that affects our ecosystem in a huge way. Many know that the dwindling population is a problem, but few realize that gardeners can help pollinators in a BIG way, simply by planting a wildflower or perennial garden! What are Pollinators’ jobs in nature? There are a variety of […]
To say pollination is an important process would be an understatement. A large number of the Earth’s edible plants create their fruit and seeds with the help of pollinators moving pollen from plant to plant. And we humans, along with the rest of the world’s animals, depend on this essential food cycle for our survival. […]
‘Rubycunda’ is a new, very cold hardy hybrid variety with large, spectacular red and white flowers. The flowers are huge and rival some of the cold tender English hybrids in size and showiness. ‘Rubycunda’ is zone 4 cold hardy, so it can be planted throughout much of the northern US and Intermountain West.
Late summer is a time of the year for gardeners here in New Mexico when we are waiting for our life giving “monsoon” rains and the return of the hummingbirds. We get about 60 to 70% of our annual precipitation here in New Mexico in July, August and early September. The rains were late to […]

Antonio Longo is an ambitious young man with a mission: maintain the production of the high-quality that were once so popular in the area. “My grandfather had six hectares of fig and olive trees, but after his death they were uncared for until I started to work them again. Many people have stopped growing figs here”, he says, “as they require a lot of work at harvest time, but I have gathered enough growers to supply my company”. Longo started Santomiele six years ago, working with local women from his village. He sun-dries the figs on the roof of his house on large flats baskets, then works them in a variety of delicious ways for some really upscale sweetmeats.
“Our figs are unique: they are very sweet and more tender and fine-seeded then coarse Turkish, Greek, or Calabrian figs you usually find in the market, “he explain. “the best come from the comuni of Agropoli,Prignano and Ogliastro Cilento”. He has gained a reputation not only for his attractive packaging, but especially for the high standards of his figs and fillings. If you stop into deliciously perfumed laboratorio, you will find ladies stuffing the figs with cinnamon, almond, lemon zest, walnuts, pistachios and chocolate: all irresistible.


The major city in Central Illinois is Peoria. Peoria is a medium-size city in the middle of Illinois on the west bank of the Illinois River, an important tributary that links Chicago and St. Louis, Missouri.
Charles Kuralt of CBS-TV once said Peoria is in the ``middle of Illinois which is in the middle of the country which is in the middle of the world. More than one-fifth of the United States lives within 250 miles of Peoria.''
Long known as a blue-collar town (Caterpillar Inc.'s World Headquarters is located downtown), Peoria has become a majority white-collar city due in a large part to a growing information technology industry. Bradley University and Illinois Central College also reside in the area.
In the Tri-County area (Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford Counties) live 350,958 people, according to the 2000 Census, with 182,495 people in Peoria County alone. The City of Peoria had 112,936 people in 2000.
The city is surrounded by some of the richest farmland on earth. Agribusiness is a major player in the central Illinois economy. Corn and soybeans are the two main products as well as the raising of farm stock. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Center for Agricultural Utilization Research is located in Peoria.

Our new Cherry pack house runs for 4 months of the year, grading all of our own fruit for the major retailers and also supplying many fresh produce markets around the country. This facility has enabled us to pack for other local growers, giving them the opportunity to supply additional outlets. We have the capacity to store 3100 tonnes of fruit in modern controlled-atmosphere cold stores.
Cherry picking season starts in June taking us through to mid-August. Cherries are grown in intensively under modern tunnelled structures. The months of September and October are when the pears and apples are harvested. With the addition of the late season Braeburn apple, picking can now last until mid-November.

TRAM (Transition Mearns) was formed in December 2009. We aim to support local projects in the Mearns Community to improve community resilience, make a positive difference to our world and improve our quality of life.
With funding from Awards for All Scotland we helped develop Benholm Bikes which has since become the Mearns Cycle Hub and transferred to Mearns Community Transport. After renting an Allotment in Fettercairn we developed the Fettercairn Community Allotment and with Leader funding created community raised beds, put fencing in, and had a large fruit cage built. We now have a mixture of individual plots and the community area, which includes the fruit cage and a small orchard of apple and plum trees.
We have regular work days, every 1st Sunday and 3rd Saturday and as well as enjoying our own produce we share surplus fruit with the Mearns Healthy Living Network. The Community Allotment is opposite Fettercairn Primary School and is open to all to visit at any time. You can contact TRAM through firstname.lastname@example.org.


Most everyone thinks of Earthworms as “night crawlers” or those brownish-red fishing worms. Normally they are beneficial to the soil. However, when population increases, usually in richer soil in moist areas, they really make a mess. They deposit little beads of soil about the size of a pinhead on top of the soil. When you see the cumulative effect of beads of soil on top of the ground the end result is a spongy, muddy situation.
Most everyone thinks, incorrectly, that this is Mole Cricket damage. Usually they are the first problem noticed in Winter through Spring when the ground moisture is higher. As the season progresses the dispersal of beads looks like little volcanoes usually less than the circumference of a dime. It can get so bad that the soil they deposit on top of the ground actually covers up the lawn. In addition, the rich soil they deposit aggravates Brown Patch fungus so they are often noticed together in problem areas. To lessen their effect, drain water-clogged soil. If this problem becomes severe enough, we offer additional applications to reduce the effects of this problem.

“Balticovo” has been operating since 1972 and is currently the largest producer of eggs and egg products in Northern Europe – our hens lay more than 600 million eggs per year.
The company products are available in the shops, and used in the hotels, restaurants and households of Latvia, but the majority – about 70% – of the products, are exported to several European Union countries and other countries in the world, in total – to 20 countries.
“Balticovo” quality control is performed from the production of poultry feed, poultry farming and egg production, to sorting, packaging and the production of various egg products. We do not want to create waste, we turn it into a resource: we process manure into biogas, from which electricity is produced. “Balticovo” has its own accredited laboratory that controls raw materials and products.
The products offered by the company are healthy and such can only be produced by healthy chickens in a safe environment. This is our main driving force of innovation – to ensure that the result of our joint work is safe and valuable. We have developed the rearing of laying hens outside cages. Such barn of free-range hens is located in the Madona area, as well as cooperation with farmers ensures that we can supply consumers with all four categories of eggs, cage-laid (3), barn-laid (2), free-range (1), and also organic eggs (0).
We are constantly looking for new ways to improve our performance, while at the same time making our daily lives easier. Time-tested value – a motivated and cohesive team – allows us to introduce innovations. “Balticovo” is a place, where every employee is heard, and where the suggestion of every person can become a solution to the problem.

Simple Guide to Growing Vegetable at Home
Today, finding fresh organic vegetables is difficult, and if you find them, they are costly, and you might not afford to eat them on a regular basis as per most nutritionists’ advice. As much as many people would want to eat fresh vegetables, finding them is cumbersome and if you get them, you will have to part with a substantial amount of money to purchase them. Most people think that it is a cumbersome undertaking, but you will realize that it is not as difficult as it might seem. With the guidance, you can do it and this article provides some useful tips to help you start it.
Prepare the soil – Soil provides nutrients and other essential elements that vegetables might require for proper growth. Soil preparation is the first step, and it involves clearing weeds, debris, inorganic products and adding manure. It also includes adding the right proportions of manure to improve the fertility. Instead of purchasing manure, you can prepare compost and add to the soil to improve its fertility and structure. With fertile soil, you can be sure to get healthy vegetables, and they will grow at a fast rate.
Select appropriate vegetables – Do not assume that all vegetables that you might think of can grow well in the area because their growth depends on several factors such as soil and climate. For that reason, you will have to do some research to find out all these information to help you make a sound decision. You can research on the internet, or you can inquire from other farmers near you. Best sources of information include local farmers, internet and agricultural offices.
Plant flowers – This tip would seem a bit irrelevant in a guide to planting vegetables but it plays a vital role, and it is essential. Flowers are colorful, and they attract insects which are useful for pollination and thus, this can be helpful to the vegetables in the garden. Choose the best flowers that blossom fast such as marigold.
Vertical garden – The vertical garden is rapidly gaining popularity in the recent times because it is an economical way of farming. You can grow numerous vegetables on vertical gardens just as it were on a vast land. With a vertical garden, you can grow a lot of vegetables and do other practices effortlessly.
Plant indigenous vegetables – Although hybrid vegetable varieties are available in the market, it is advisable to choose native types as they are easy to grow. The indigenous vegetables have been around for a long time, and thus, they can adapt to the prevailing conditions. Such vegetables are also tastier than the hybrid ones. The vegetable seeds or seedlings are also affordable, and you can find them easily in your location.

About the NGO
Universal Versatile Society
A 2018 study of 67 developed and emerging nations has ranked India as the most vulnerable country to the effects of climate change, based on its sensitivity to extreme weather and ability to respond to such events. And, with more than 58% of India’s rural households dependent on some form of agriculture as a livelihood, this is a huge danger.
Consequences of climate change have drastically reduced incomes of farmers, particularly in areas hardest hit by rising temperatures and decreasing rainfall. A more serious concern is the rising suicide rate within the agronomic sector.
More than 12,000 suicides have been reported every year since 2013. There are many reasons behind this trend, many of which directly result from climate change stressors, including monsoon failure, lack of awareness of sustainable farming methods, water crises and disputes, amongst others.
Maharashtra is the state most adversely affected by these suicides, which is why UVS aim to prevent the plight of farmers in the state’s Vidarbha region through awareness-raising activities, basic climate change education, skills building, and helping families develop small, sustainable income-generating enterprises.
UVS also uses computer education to teach youth in 12 rural schools about environmental and cultural concerns through project-based learning. Students also participate in essay and drawing competitions, camps, and poster making to foster education and catalyse action against climate change.
UVS try to raise awareness on government schemes, such as the national missions on solar, enhanced energy efficiency, sustainable habitats, water, ‘Green India’, and others. They also use these campaigns to warn farmers against the effects of the excessive use of fertilisers and pesticides and demonstrate the necessity of water and soil conservation, water harvesting and organic farming.
Help UVS as they strive to develop and mobilise a community of young changemakers committed to the fight against the perils of climate change, and give them your support so they may reach this goal.

That depends very much per vineyard. A wine that does no undergo wood or bottle ageing before being ready ( Champagne or Piemonte for example), is ready around the spring after the harvest, typically the next April or May. For the other wines it can differ widely, from 18 months after harvest, to 2-3 years. This information is specified per vineyard under the wine description.

Stennie with her sheep
I established Tuuli Farm in 2020 while living in Vermont, but the pull of the prairie and the desire to live closer to family prompted me to begin my search for land access in the midwest. I connected with my landlord through Practical Farmers of Iowa, and now I’m thrilled to be tending a little corner of the Loess Hills in west central Iowa. This is the traditional, ancestral and contemporary land of the Omaha, Yankton and Očhéthi Šakówiŋ People.
I moved here with my flock in June 2021, and I’m beginning the process of getting to know this place and how to care for it and my sheep here. Through carefully managed grazing, I hope to nurture the unique biodiversity of this place, to reestablish and encourage the prairie.
The Tuuli flock are primarily Finn and Romney crosses bred for fiber and grass-finished meat. I work with fiber mills whose equipment can accommodate small batches of fleece, so that each sheep’s individual color and character can be showcased in their own yarn. I batch the white sheep’s fleeces by family for spinning and then hand dye them using plants I’ve grown or foraged. I especially love growing Japanese Indigo, for fresh leaf dyeing techniques as well as fermenting and extracting the indigo pigment for wintertime vats.
Tuuli Farm grass-finished lamb is available by reservation only and sold by the half and whole. Please contact me with questions and to make your reservation.
Tuuli Farm provides me with the space to deepen my own relationship to my flock, garden, and the living earth. These relationships flow through the yarn and meat, which are a celebration of all our connections and an invitation to deepen them.

Preserving Fresh Herbs, easy, healthy, delicious and budget-friendly. Never throw away fresh herbs again; dry, freeze or make flavorful compound butter. Fabulous!
NOTE – This post is meant for teaching and may not be full of mouth-watering goodness, but the information I share below will help you create mouth-watering goodness in the future. Enjoy! In the meantime, get out to the garden and harvest your herbs, so you have deliciousness all Winter.
Preserving Fresh Herbs
Whether you have a Herb Garden or you buy Fresh Herbs from the grocery to use in cooking, you will probably end up with leftover packages of herbs. Do not let them go to waste. The suggestions for preserving fresh herbs below can be utilized with large or small amounts of product.
Ways To Preserve Fresh Herbs Offered In This Post
- Freezing in Olive Oil, Broth, or Stock
- Tray Drying
- Allow Blooms To Seed
- Paper Bag Drying (The best results for Drying)
- Creating Compound Butters
Part of my Herb Garden, pictured above, is slightly over-grown and that was on purpose. When I harvest herbs to preserve them, I let the garden grow into an abundance of harvest possibilities. To begin, cut the herbs you would like to preserve, then wash and let dry thoroughly.
Hint and Tip: When washing herbs, use the spray nozzle set to a soft medium spray. Holding the herbs by the stems, upside down, spray with water and shake off the excess. Layout to dry on paper towel lined sheet trays. It is best not to soak the herbs in water for two reasons. If there are any bacteria on any leaves, it will spread through the entire bunch. Secondly, herbs would rather be sprinkled than soaked.
Preserving Fresh Herbs – Freezing in Olive Oil, Broth, or Stock
Freezing is an easy way to preserve fresh herbs and a welcomed addition to Wintertime soups, stews, and sauces. Use a combination of herbs or a single variety and measure the desired amount into an ice cube tray. Cover the herbs with good Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, or Broth, or Stock, or Water. You can also cover with melted unsalted butter as well. Cover the trays with plastic wrap, freeze, and remove the cubes from the tray. Place in plastic freezer bags and put the bags into a plastic container. This will protect your precious cubes from being broken or the herbs from bruising. It is essential to label the trays before filling and freezing, as well as label the storage bags or plastic containers for storage.
Sample Label: 1 tablespoon oregano in 2 tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, 10-10-16
The herbs can be chopped, or a paste can be made using a food processor before you freeze. I chose to leave the options open as this can be accomplished after frozen and then thawing for the use at hand.

Drying Fresh Herbs On Trays
Drying Herbs on trays worked very well for me, but there are a couple of things to consider. Do you have enough trays and do you have room to store the trays while the herbs dry? I own a speed cart, and it worked like a top to dry my herbs on trays.
Wash and dry the herbs and separate the leaves from the stems laying in single layers on a parchment lined sheet tray. Cover with cheese cloth and let dry for 4 to 6 weeks. Store in a dry, darkish place to dry. Once the herbs are dry, gently break into pieces for the glass storage container. Before adding them to soup or stew, I will break each amount desired for that dish by rubbing the dried herbs between the palms of my hands; this releases the oil and the aromatics once again.
Hint and Tip: As you can see I label everything while working through the process. Once leaves have dried it can be a little confusing when finishing the project.
Hint and Tip: Store dried herbs in sealed glass containers. Plastic containers or bags create static electricity and cause the herb pieces to adhere to the sides of the container.
(My favorite drying method and the best aromatic results I tried, was the paper bag method. More about that below.)
Tray Drying Herbs After Four Weeks
Harvesting Herb Seeds
I love cooking with Fennel Bulbs, so I decided to try and grow it. It grew great, but the bulb itself never did so I decided to let it seed out. To seed out the fennel, let it grow, the herb will bolt out and flower, and the flowers will produce seeds. Harvest the stem of seeds once the seeds begin to fall off easily. Bring the stem of seeds inside and dry in a paper bag. Remove the seeds and store in a glass container. How easy is that?
Preserving Fresh Herbs by Hanging Inside Paper Bags
The drying herbs in the paper bag method became my favorite way to produce a good crop of dried herbs. A paper bag is not necessary to hang herbs to dry, but for culinary purposes, the bag will keep bugs and dust off of the herbs while they dry. Label and date a paper bag and punch holes into the sides using a paper punch. Once the herbs have been washed and dried, gather a couple of stems at the cut end and tie them together. Carefully slip the tied herbs, leaves going in first, into a paper bag leaving the tied ends out of the bag. Do not crowd the leaves inside the bag. There needs to be enough room for a good flow of ventilation between the stems. Tie the bag shut and hang to dry in a well ventilated dry place. The herbs can be checked in 2 to 4 weeks.
Once the herbs are dry, remove the stems from the bag. Discard the bag. It is wise to always use a clean bag for the next drying season. Below is a photo of dried Aussie Sweet Basil that was dried using the paper bag method.
Remember to turn the bag upside down after removing the dried herbs. There could be some leaves in the bottom of the bag from falling off during the process.
When removing the dried leaves from the stems, I found it was easier to cup my hand around the bunch and gently squeeze the leaves off. Keep in mind; the leaves will pop and go everywhere when removing them with too much force. The dried herbs can be stored in glass containers without crushing the leaves. In fact, I leave the leaves as large as I can and crush them before using them in cooking.

And the Benefits of Using the Deep Bedding Method for Your Sheep Shed
If you are hoping to raise a small flock of Babydoll Sheep, the Deep Bedding Method may be perfect for your sheep shed management plan!
I have used this method for several years and it works well for us.
No matter what, you are going to have to shovel manure. There is no way around it.
But this way allows me to only deep clean our sheep shed twice a year. It’s a lower cost option, simple to execute and twice a year, I get fabulous manure as fertilizer for our garden!
In this post, I will break down the following:
- What is the Deep Bedding Method
- What type of situation is best for this method
- How to manage your bedding with this method
- My favorite things to use for this method
What is the Deep Bedding Method? (Or, Deep Litter Method)
The deep bedding method is a way to help insulate the cold ground in your barn or shed with bedding during the winter months.
Instead of cleaning out the flooring every week as some do, you simply layer more dry bedding on top of the floor. You do this again and again creating a sort of ‘lasagna’ of manure and bedding. (I know, gross analogy, but stick with me.)
These layers create heat keeping your animals dry and warm.
We often forget that it is not just the air and wind that is cold in winter, but also the ground. Especially for structures with dirt floors, especially during early lambing season, this method has helped keep our sheep warm—even in below zero temperatures.
What is The Best Situation for This Method
To me, and from my experience, this method is best if you have the following set-up:
- A shed instead of a barn. Meaning, you have three-sided structure that has good ventilation and the ground as the dirt floor. I have heard other Babydoll Sheep shepherd friends who have large barns say that sometimes this method does not work for them because their flooring is not meant to handle all the layers of bedding. And, especially in colder climates, they keep the barn closed in with not much ventilation. Without ventilation, you get anaerobic decomposition with the manure. Meaning, it will be super stinky.
- Your temperature is not consistently below freezing. Again, if you live in colder climates where you need to close up your barn, this may not be the best option for you. I have friends who have made it work, so this is just something to consider.
- You have a smaller flock and you have access to good bedding. This is a cost-effective option for me, because we (as in my husband and his dad) bale our own hay. We have access to good bedding. So, sprinkling fresh bedding every week or so does not hurt our pockets. If you have a very large flock and maybe you don’t get to pale your pasture, this could get costly.
How to Do this Method for your Sheep Shed
The way I do it, is once a week, I’ll walk around the sheep shed taking note of how the bedding is looking.
If it looks fairly dry, I’ll just sprinkle fresh, dry hay bedding in any more soiled spots or anyplace the rain may have seeped in.
If it looks very wet and soiled, the entire space gets a full layer of hay bedding.
And once a month, I will use First Saturday Lime. This is powered lime that has a multitude of uses on a farm, but I use it the most in our sheep shed.
Then, early spring and early fall, I shovel everything out to the ground and add it to my garden beds!
Using First Saturday Lime for the Deep Bedding Method in Your Sheep Shed
I have been using First Saturday Lime for years, all over our property for various uses. However, I consistently use it the most in the sheep shed.
It is a natural pesticide. And if you’re familiar with how easily sheep can get worms and parasites, you know that having a clean shed is a very important part to keep them at bay.
Once a month, I will clear the sheep out of the shed and sprinkle a generous amount of the lime powder all over the floor taking special attention to more soiled spaces and the perimeter.
The worms are found in the sheep manure, so I want to try to eradicate any potential worm breeding grounds by sprinkling the lime on manure spots.
Once the lime settles, then I heap on the new bedding.
I can tell my sheep love it when I do this once a month. They let me know by rolling around in and tossing the hay around—much like a kid who wants to jump on a freshly-made bed!

As the EU sugar quota system ended in September 2017, major producers across Europe have been busy gearing up to increase their output capacity. Here, the latest motor and drive technologies are great facilitators of faster/higher production, particularly when supplied as part of an integrated and managed solution.
Sugar is the only agricultural sector in the EU where production was subject to a quota system. The total EU production quota of 13.5 million tonnes of sugar was divided between 20 member states, and was introduced with the first rules set by the sugar common market organisation (CMO) in 1968. At the time, the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) had as one of its main objectives the self-sufficiency of the continent for its food production by encouraging agricultural production with remunerative and stable prices for farmers. Quotas, together with a support price, provided an incentive to achieve these goals in the sugar sector.
With the end of the quota system, sugar exports will no longer be limited by WTO rules, allowing producers to fully explore new markets and possibilities. Without regulatory limits, sugar plant are now working to optimise the use of their capacity and reduce the unit cost of producing sugar. The situation for the coming post-quota years is analysed in the European Commission’s medium-term outlook report, which estimates that sugar production will increase by 6% through to 2026.
Most of the EU’s sugar beet is grown in the northern half of Europe, where the climate is most suited to producing this type of crop. Here, a number of sugar production facilities are looking to take advantage of the relaxation in quota regulations by increasing their output capacity, often by as much as 30%.
Sugar plant upgrade projects can take many forms, ranging from enhanced wash workshops through to more efficient conveyor capabilities between processes.
Wash workshops are pivotal in production throughput as they are typically the first stop for sugar beet arriving directly from the field. These facilities serve as weed catchers, washing and de-stoning the beet ready for processing.
By upgrading to high efficiency, three-phase induction motors with soft starters and modular variable speed drives (VSDs), for example, plants can achieve notable gains in productivity from weed-catchers and stoners, as well as conveyor belts and pumping units. Due to the diversity of the machinery and equipment found in sugar refineries, both standard and customised solutions will likely be required. For instance, the plant may benefit from linking together VSDs in a master and slave configuration in order to meet specific needs.
In almost all applications, a partnership approach with a reputable motor and drives specialist will pay dividends, especially one able to provide a fully integrated and managed solution. A complete package offer should include not just products, but full commissioning, on-site training and aftersales service, including 24-7 access to support and spare parts. Sugar production is a high-octane process and downtime can be extremely costly.
The EU is the world’s leading producer of beet sugar, commanding around 50% of the total. However, beet represents only 20% of the globe’s sugar output; the other 80% is produced from sugar cane.
The nature of sugar cane crops means that plants based in more tropical climates can take advantage, with Southeast Asia a major producer. As a rough guide it takes around 10 million tons of sugar cane to produce 1 million tons of sugar. With this in mind, speed of throughput at large producers is often determined by the efficient delivery of sugar cane between processes.
To help keep up with demand, many sugar plants are scrutinising their sugar cane conveyors, eyeing modular VSDs as an optimum upgrade path. Producers are attracted to the low harmonics of the latest VSD technologies. Through available modules, some VSDs also offer an encoder input to provide closed-loop rotor flux control (RFC-A) for induction motors. This is vital as the equipment is conveying sugar cane to each process station, including a crushing station. Sugar plants need to run at full capacity, particularly during peak months when the crop comes into season. Any downtime during these months can very damaging to supply in the off-season.
By way of example, a typical sugar cane plant using modern VSDs might be able to control conveyors with 0Hz at full torque, thus enhancing performance. Conveyors will also exhibit better overload torque in RFC-A mode.
Another principal reason behind the growing trend for VSDs at sugar refineries is the potential for task-based commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance, which in turn helps minimise downtime at high-volume sugar plants.
In support of upgrade projects, a ‘partner’ drives provider should be able to offer commissioning software tools that help reduce downtime considerably. The latest drive configuration tools help to commission, optimise and monitor drive/system performance. Graphical formats are used to enhance and simplify the user experience, although, for experienced users, dynamic drive logic diagrams and enhanced searchable listings can also be found in modern systems.

Fall is quickly approaching, and now is the time for commercial property owners and businesses to start getting their landscaping ready with a fall landscape maintenance checklist.
While spring often gets all of the attention when it comes to commercial landscape maintenance, fall can be just as significant.
With a few simple maintenance tasks and a little bit of TLC, you can ensure that your landscape looks amazing through the colder months!
In this blog post, we’ll discuss eight essential fall landscape maintenance tasks – from pruning shrubs and trees to hardscape maintenance – so that you can make sure your business’s outdoor space looks excellent before winter arrives!
Pruning shrubs and trees for healthier growth
Do you ever wonder why pruning your shrubs and trees in the fall is necessary for their overall health? Well, pruning during this time promotes healthier growth for various reasons.
For one, the cooler temperatures mean less stress on the plant, allowing for better recovery from pruning cuts.
Additionally, pruning can help reshape the plant and remove dead or diseased wood, preventing pests and diseases from spreading.
Plus, pruning in the fall can also increase flower and fruit production the following season.
Aerating and fertilize your lawn to improve soil conditions
Fall is the perfect time to give your lawn a little extra care before the winter months arrive.
Aerating and fertilizing your lawn in the fall can do wonders for improving soil conditions.
By aerating, you are essentially punching small holes into the ground, reducing soil compaction.
Adding aeration to your lawn care routine allows air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the soil, reaching the grass roots.
This helps to promote healthy root growth while also minimizing thatch buildup.
Fall fertilization, on the other hand, provides your lawn with much-needed nutrients that were likely depleted through the summer months. Doing a soil test at this time is a vital part of lawn maintenance.
By applying lawn fertilizer in the fall, you are giving your lawn a boost to help it survive the upcoming cold weather and promote springtime grass growth.
Planning for winter with mulching and weed control
As the leaves change color and the days grow shorter, it’s time to start thinking about preparing your lawn for winter.
Mulching and weed control are essential steps in landscape maintenance that will help protect your lawn from harsh weather and promote healthy growth in the spring.
Mulching helps insulate the soil, keeping it warm during the colder months and providing vital nutrients to the roots while helping to control weeds.
Removing weeds not only keeps your lawn looking tidy but also prevents them from competing with your grass for nutrients and water.
By starting now, you’ll be able to give your lawn the care it needs to thrive throughout the winter, ensuring a lush and beautiful lawn come springtime.
Inspecting outdoor lighting fixtures for repairs or replacements
It may seem like the chilly winter season is far off, but it’ll be here before we know it. And with it comes an abundance of outdoor lighting needs.
Before the snow starts to fall, it’s time to inspect your outdoor lighting fixtures for repairs or replacements as part of your fall landscape maintenance inspection.
This is especially important since the harsh winter weather can take a toll on your lighting fixtures, leading to unexpected breakdowns and repairs.
By proactively examining your fixtures now, you’ll be able to enjoy safe and functional lighting all year round.
Trust us; you’ll thank yourself for taking a few moments to check your outdoor lighting before the winter months arrive!
Preparing flower beds by removing dead plants or adding new ones
As summer comes to an end and the cooler temperatures of fall set in, it’s time to start thinking about preparing your flower beds for the changing seasons.
This means removing any dead perennials and annuals that have wilted and lost their vibrancy throughout the summer.
However, it’s not just about removing the old – it’s also the perfect opportunity to add new plants and flowers to bring some fresh life to your garden.
Whether you’re looking to take on a whole new look or just add a few new pops of color with perennials, fall is the ideal time to give your flower beds a little TLC.
Check your hardscape for fall landscape maintenance and repairs
With fall just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to check your hardscape for maintenance and repairs.
Fall landscape maintenance will help you prepare your outdoor space for the colder months ahead and make snow removal a breeze come winter.
From fixing cracks in your driveway to ensuring your walkways are level and safe, taking a proactive approach to hardscape maintenance now will save you time and money down the line.
And let’s not forget the aesthetic benefits – properly cared-for hardscaping adds curb appeal to your business.
So grab your coffee and take a stroll around your property, noting any areas that need attention. Your future self will thank you.
Scheduling inspections of irrigation system for winterization
Living in an area that experiences harsh winters can take a toll on your lawn irrigation system.
Snowfall and freezing temperatures can cause pipes to crack and damage your sprinklers. That’s why scheduling regular inspections and winterization is necessary to ensure the longevity of your system.
Avoiding these routine maintenance practices can lead to costly repairs in the long run.
With proper fall landscape maintenance inspections, you will catch any issues, such as leaks or clogs, before they worsen.
Winterization involves shutting down and draining the system to prevent water from getting trapped and expanding, causing pipes to burst.
It’s much easier to be proactive about your lawn irrigation system than to scramble to fix it during the busy spring and summer months.
Schedule inspections and winterization of your water features
Maintaining your company’s water features might not be the first thing that comes to mind when planning your business strategy, but it shouldn’t be ignored.
Proper scheduling of inspections and winterization of these features as part of your fall landscape maintenance can save you from headaches and costly repairs down the road.
By taking preventative measures, you can ensure that your fountains, ponds, or other water installations run smoothly and at their finest.
Inspections can identify potential damages or failures before they become significant problems. And when winter arrives, proper winterization prevents the freezing and cracking of pipes, pumps, and other parts.
Not only does this save on repair costs, but it also keeps your business running smoothly and your customers impressed with your attention to detail.
So, don’t overlook the importance of scheduling inspections and winterizing your water features before the winter snow – it’s a smart investment in the long run!
The fall season brings with it a wealth of fall landscape maintenance and preparation to be done, and although the amount of work may seem daunting at first, completing these simple steps can ensure that your landscape is in great shape for years to come.
Take time to follow this landscaping checklist:
- Prune shrubs and trees correctly
- Aerate and fertilize the lawn
- Prepare flower beds or outdoor lighting locations
- Inspect each water feature
- Check the hardscape for repairs or other upgrades
- Make sure your gutters are free of debris
These landscape tips for yard maintenance will all go a long way in helping you take care of your landscape over the cold months.
Getting started on these fall landscape maintenance tasks as soon as possible so that you aren’t left trying to play catch up when winter arrives!
Take advantage of all the fall has to offer your business’s lawn maintenance by following these seven essential tips this season.
