Poppy & Thistle Country Floral Shoppe

Poppy & Thistle is OFFICIALLY opening their space in the farm stand! You know that curtain that's been up saying "coming soon" all this time? It's coming down this weekend!! Come show this new business some love. She will have flower arrangements (using Night Owl Farm flowers!), and some really cool items/gifts that she has curated.

You will be able to access Poppy & Thistle's shop any time during our open hours, but the owner will be here for opening day on Saturday, August 22nd, 10-4!

Night Owl Farm: 2024 Key Dates

Night Owl Farm Quick Farm/Farmer Update I feel a little bit like I'm climbing out of hiding as I write this email. The 2023 season was an absolute whirlwind. February started off at an intense pace. The renovations on the farm stand stared, thanks to a grant we received through the Massachusetts Department of Agriculture, and renovations ALSO started on the home my husband and I purchased in Blackstone at the same time. We bought an 1885 Victorian that needed (needs?) a lot of TLC, but is absolutely stunning. (Please ask to see pictures when you see me next! I would love to show you!) Two major renovation projects at the same time is no joke, and then I had to run our regular farming season on top of that. To say I was tired by the end of the season was an understatement! The house still needs a lot of work (we aren't living in it quite yet), and the greenhouse needs maintenance, so I decided to take the rest of the winter to rest & regroup so we can hit the ground running for the 2024 season! I will miss ALL of you at the winter market, but it will make our re-opening in May even better! We have a lot in store for this year, so take a look at our upcoming key dates for what you can expect this year. Upcoming Key Dates I've put together a schedule of upcoming important dates for the farm. More details on each item can be found on our website!

Night Owl Farm Common Gardening Problems Come learn about the most common problems, pests, and diseases that gardeners face, and how to combat them! This workshop is designed for all levels. From tomato horn worms, to chipmunks, to powdery mildew. We will go through the major obstacles that gardeners will likely face. At the end of the lesson, opportunity will also be given to discuss personal gardening hurdles. This will be an open-format discussion to allow not only for Farmer Ali to assist in diagnosis, but also your fellow gardeners. Ali's perspective is only one, and she understands the value of a Socratic workshop. The ability to use each other as a resource is invaluable, and will be encouraged in this workshop! (To those who are new to gardening, you are more than welcome to attend regardless of whether or not you can provide input to other attendees. Ask questions, and listen to others - one day you will be giving advice too!) There are many approaches to combatting pests and diseases, and those using different practices are ABSOLUTELY still welcome to attend, but this workshop will exclusively focus on organic, sustainable, and regenerative practices. Cost: $55 per person Time: April 29th 10:00am-12:00pm Compost pick-up will be right after, so you can kill two birds with one stone! 😊 Common Gardening Problems (April 29th, 10:00am - 12:00pm) $55.00 Night Owl Farm 49 Prospect Street, Franklin, MA, 02038 Square Buyer Features Privacy Policy Gardening Workshop on April 29th! was sent to you on 2023-04-20 11:31:42 UTC by Night Owl Farm

Night Owl Farm: Fun Fact Friday - the visible difference of compost

Night Owl Farm ✨Farm Fact Friday✨ The Power of Compost I took this picture a few days ago when we planted our first field crops (Kohlrabi, Scallions, Lettuce, & Escarole). I was blown away at the stark difference between beds that were right next to each other! The bed on the right received a healthy amount of compost last year, while the bed on the left did not. I don't know why it didn't, I just know that it didn't. Did I just not want to haul another wheelbarrow up the hill? Probably 😂 Both of these were left to their own devices all winter, and when we got started this spring, this is what we had to work with! (In the photo, the bed on the right had already been broadforked, where the one on the left had not.) We couldn't BELIEVE the difference! The bed on the right was softer, smelled good, and was much easier to work with, while the bed on the left was harder, cracked, and dried out really quickly after prepping. The only difference between the two beds is that one received compost, and the other didn't. They received the same amendments, same watering, and were on the same weed schedule. It's important to note that compost and amendments (fertilizer) are both important, and you shouldn't pick one or the other for your growing space. Compost adds organic matter to the soil which helps add life, improves your soil structure, increases the ability to "catch and release" nutrients so that the plants get what they need, and helps with retaining water. Amendments add the minerals and nutrients that your plants need to thrive, compost helps them work better! There is so much useful information out there on the importance of compost in your gardens. I highly recommend doing a deep dive to learn more, as this is just a quick intro to it.
