Erbe Farms

06/01/2026

Been a pretty busy week around here. Lots of business planning on top of the usual farm and kitchen work. I think we're getting close to a really solid plan and am very excited about starting to work with a couple other local farms and ranches on the food side of things.

Thanks to the new A/C we're finally able to start putting a few more species through the grow. Pioppinos are back on the menu 😎 Hopefully we'll get some chestnuts poping here in the not too distant future.

The bees are doing well. Had to add a couple more supers to get them some room. Looks like we're definitely gonna get some honey at this point, so that is exciting.

Micro and Baby greens are all starting to get pretty reliable. We had to reduce the light a little bit in the grow rig cause they were burning the leaves in a spots. Think we'll have them reliable and ready very soon.

The outdoor plants are doing pretty decent too. Sunflowers starting to form. Gonna see if we get lucky with some late peppers and put in some summer crops into the beds this week.

Have a good one folks!

My food truck... my next food truck... my next truck... a dude who didnt realize he was a mushroom nut... my old jeep, but red.... my wish list...

So we're at the , 3rd annual car and bike show. It opens at 10am but as you can see its already filling up. Looks like were gonna have a little sun creeping out shortly and are set up for one heck of a car show.

I ran out of pics on the post but there are a lot of cool vendors here, pets for adoption from and .

Even more so veteran organizations like and .

What's even cooler about the car show... all the event proceeds, and a portion of vendor sales go towards helping the local veteran community.

We're all set up at Good Day Farm and we got the bulk of our menu here and ready to go. Sorry, no chili nachos yet, but soon! Left the cookies at the shop today too since we're super low. Don't worry, we'll have more soon!

We're really liking setting up here in the afternoon and we're happy to say its going to be a more regular thing. After the farmer's market on most Saturdays, you'll be able to find us here rounding out the afternoon, into the early evening.

Also got some pics of some of the starts we're getting ready. All sorts of neat stuff getting about ti happen 😁

It's a little rainy today, but the mushrooms don't mind 😁 The shop is open with a fresh crop of Oysters and the truck is getting ready to head over to GDF for the afternoon.

Just about got the greens mixes timed to land together for salads. Last load of spent substrate ready to mix into the beds. Indoor starts are making progress too but forgot to grab pics.

Time to get back to work over here. Have a good one all!
