PTB Farm is a family farm in Rockingham County. We are dedicated to building living soil and providing an example of innovative, ecological agriculture.

A lot of farming these days looks like handing off the kiddo so one of us can squeeze in a 20minute work session. It's also a lot of freezer inventory and packing buckets full of flowers into the minivan for deliveries. It's remembering that preschool pickup is in 10 minutes when I'm elbow deep in potting soil. Basically, it's not photogenic or share-worthy, or when it is I simply don't have the capacity to get my phone out and share. It's also been so hot and so dry and so weedy and humbling at every turn.

Years ago I read an essay by Mary Oliver about the personality of a trap door spider she befriended while on a writing retreat. I was reminded of the story today when I came across these two while harvesting amaranth. Hot biscuits amaranth to be exact. I spent the rest of the morning noticing all kinds of tiny creatures while going about my work, glad we maintain a strict no spray policy so we get a glimpse of the mighty universes that surround us everyday.

It rained. And now a wave of relief washes over us as we can literally watch the grass grow for the first time in months. August green up is better than no green up.

August meatboxes are dropping!!

One thing I thought I'd never be able to do as a farmer is take a summer vacation. But this year marked several milestones in our family and so (with help and support of lots of friends and family) we did! And now we're back from admiring English gardens and playgrounds and connecting with long lost cousins and sweet old uncles and their spaniels.

We are refreshed and ready for a productive second half of the year! Our online store refreshed, we're already preparing for Cobblestone Farmers Market on Saturday, we're about to restock Aubrey Cupit in time for this evenings open hours, and we're set to release the August meatboxes as well! Also BOLO for our fall freezer sale info - it's almost that time of year again!

June is almost over and next week it will be July. July is a hot month filled with long summer days. If you don't want to have to plan your farmers market forays around how to keep your meat frozen (pro tip: come early and pack your insulated bag!!) then order a meat box! Our July meat boxes might just have a few surprises so be sure to get yours!! Options for the PTB meatbox are: small (10lbs) or large (20lbs), subscription (monthly/recurring) or one time. Pickup is by appointment on the farm ~ about 20min north of downtown Greensboro

This week we celebrate 12 years of marriage. Twelve years of building a farm, a business, a house, a family, and a life together. I think I read somewhere this one is considered the silk anniversary, but I'm going to call it the basil anniversary. And I'm going to make pesto this weekend. You should too, even if you're not celebrating.

Whatever you're doing or celebrating this weekend, do it with delicious steaks and flowers.

We found a turtle crossing the yard. It had just rained and though the ground was still practically dry, the world had softened just a tiny bit. The dogs barked and were curious but also not benign. Gingerly I picked it up and I could hear the air rush out of its shell as it closed quickly. We set it down on the edge, out of the dogs reach, and waited. Waited for the turtle to come out of its shell. I promised her that if we were patient and quiet it would happen. But it didn't. I had to go make dinner. And she, with her mind captivated by this curious creature, kept leaving the kitchen, then later the dinner table too, to check on the turtle. Always in the same place. Once, as I was finishing my salad, trying not to be frustrated with her inability to focus on dinner time, she came running in excitedly yelling about its head poking out. At bedtime she kept running to the window to see if she could see him from her room. This morning the turtle has finally gone, but a new day of discovery awaits.

Every time I catch up with someone recently, they ask how the flower farm is going, or they double check to see if I'm still at the downtown farmers market. And I always feel the need to explain fully, to go into too much detail, to give the back story. Because the truth is it's been a challenging transition, in some ways, but in other ways it's exactly where I'm meant to be. We're working out how to make a living from one farmers market so our family can thrive and do fun things on Saturdays like birthday parties or family events. But that requires sacrifice in other areas and a new cadence to our week. Learning to grow flowers for florists is new and exciting and I'm so lucky to get work with my dear friend and long time co-conspirator to learn how to bunch snaps and when to harvest lisianthus. It also means I'm hustling to sell meat boxes on this platform after bedtime and as the kid runs around barefoot in the yard begging for my attention while I'm trying to piece together a marketing strategy. All that to say, the flower farm is going great! You should buy a bouquet or even a month of bouquets! And no, I'm not at the downtown farmers market right now but you can find us in Winston on Saturdays or buy a meatbox or any of our meats online and come on out to farm to pickup! We're a human scale operation with humans just doing our best. Thanks for asking 💕
