Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!!

Technology can be a great thing.  All too often I see it being used so much that I am disgusted by what it has done to our society and to our social skills.  And that is my excuse for avoiding updating our blog and facebook page more regularly.  I am afraid to become attached and dependent on my phone and internet connection.  But when a call is received from a friend in South Korea, asking for more regular updates, I am reminded that some people do care what is going on here at Kurbis Country.  I will try again.  This one is for you Jusang!
The fall has been beautiful.  We have got all our field work done and still had time to finish the front of the store.  I finally have a flower bed to play in and the light up sign we put up looks awesome!  Thank you Rick!  

We had our annual pumpkin growing contest with a few friends and neighbours.  This years first place prize goes to the Kintop family.  Their pumpkin weighed in at 164 lbs!  

In other news, we are still open all winter.  We are keeping fresh coffee brewing daily and still have homemade bread on the weekends.  We are also still making sausage, pepperettes and smoked bacon.  The storage vegetables will be available as long as quantities last.  That would include potatoes, onions, shallots, pumpkins and squash.  All of our other regular products are still on the shelf as well...homemade pickles and jams, local honey, wild rice,  pet food, bird seed, livestock feed...and the list goes on.    

It has been a good season but now we are looking forward to the slower paced winter.
​Bring on the snow!
