Twas’ The Night Before Christmas

We truly hope tomorrow Christmas Morning is bright and wonderful without stress be good to yourselves. Well today I worked on our website, it needed so much care. Our Daughter In Law did most of it but needed some updating. Now I am at it wishing she still was the web master. This is year end as as a apiary (bee business) and bison farm we have a lot to be thankful for and look forward to the New Year and many years to come if we are blessed with them. Some of us turn 60 in January and I have so much more to accomplish. Everyday we work so hard to build a future for our kids and our grandchildren. Looking at the numbers it is going to be another tight year for our family and team. Speaking of team we are grateful for all they do year round and believing in our 6th Generation Family Farm as much as we do certainly helps. Your support with our CSA, buying online or buying at the market will help insure that we have a 7th Generation. Here is a link to the CSA http://www.glenwoodfarms.com/our-csa and here is a link to our farm online store http://www.glenwoodfarms.com/ get you one of those beautiful shirts while they last. For 2026 we have the butcher appointments locked in, we are scheduled for the moderate growth in our hive yards and hives and we look forward to hopefully consolidated our facilities and getting the team in 1 location for the most part. We shall see if the finances hold out. May your family be blessed in 2026.

Spring 2019 is here and we are excited to serve you as we embark on our next steps as a Farm

Hello Glenwood Tribe,

Well we now have an additional Farm of 208 ac. Our Son Alex and his wife Alex (whom we have given a royal title of Lady Alex. We had to do something as they are both legally Alex.) At any rate congratulations to them on their purchase of a 10 ac farm next to our 208 ac farm. Alex2 (Alex Squared) will be running the 208 ac farm and they have leased their farm to Glenwood Farms in order to facilitate a consolidated effort at the “New Farm”. We hope to raise plenty of healthy protein for our customers out at the farm. This will allow for more grazing and accommodate growth. Mr. Alex is the Glenwood Farms Manager. We as a family support him when we can in his many efforts.

The Bison will be moving to the new farm for the time being… We are studying and applying what we learn of regenerative agriculture to our Glenwood Heights Rd Farm. We hope to plant 8-15 different species of grasses, legumes and grains at our 5th Generation Farm location. As this farm regenerates we will be running Layer and Broiler Chickens and pigs off the Bison Pastures. Once we have balanced nature on those pastures some of the Bison will be back to the Glenwood Heights Rd Farm.

We hope also this year to learn about raising fodder… shhh it is a secret that will be in that big gray container located at the Glenwood Heights Rd. Farm I am sure you are all as curious as the other people.

Well in closing just want you to know that we brough home 6 pigs… er eh scratch that 5 pigs from market yesterday, so we are fully stocked with pork products.

A week or two ago we also came back from the butcher with even more Bison.

And our Chickens are laying….

If you can chicken please sign up at our booth until I figure out how to do it on the website.

If I make mistakes on these blogs please give me a break I am at hour twelve on 5 hours sleep and my spell checker is tired.

Thank you Glenwood Tribe

On Behalf of our Family to yours.

THANK YOU

Alex, Lady Alex, Evan, Tammy , Jimi and Max
