🍓 Strawberry Season Has Arrived at Belle's Bounty! 🍓

The strawberries are officially in, and they're poppin'! Fresh-picked, sweet, and ready for snacking, baking, or disappearing before you make it home.

🍓 $4 per quart
🍓 $2 per half quart

As always, Belle insisted on conducting a
thorough taste test before approving them for sale. After careful evaluation (and several bites), she has confirmed they're stand-worthy.
Quality control is important around here. 🐾
Stop by the stand and grab some while they last!

And don't forget to check the cooler for fresh duck eggs while you're here. 🦆🥚

✨ Pond Gossip ✨

Laverne: "By the way..."

Bernadette: "Tell me, babe."

And just like that, the Belle's Bounty Gossip Committee was created.🦆☕️

Fresh duck eggs are available at the stand this week. The committee insisted we mention it.

🌱 Stand Restock + Garden Update! 🌱

Fresh duck eggs ✔️
Fresh-picked asparagus ✔️
NEW handcrafted birdhouse gourds ✔️

As for Belle, she's been busy overseeing vegetable production from her preferred management position: Directly in the garden taking a nap. 🐾😴

The good news is that the garden is growing, and more fresh produce will be hitting the stand in the coming weeks!

Stay tuned - and stop by if you need eggs, asparagus, or a birdhouse for your feathered friends. 💚🐾

Unfortunately, Belle was exposed to sustained rainfall during today’s garden operations and has informed management that these are not suitable conditions for a princess of her caliber.

Despite being genetically engineered for water retrieval, she refused to exit the side-by-side and instead observed the situation from dry shelter while the work continues on in this Michigan monsoon.

Morale is low, but she will continue providing emotional support from the side-by-side to the best of her abilities. 🌧️🐾

Garden prep around here doesn’t just mean vegetables 🌸

Between planting flowers, hauling vegetable plants around, and Belle splitting her time between supervising projects and dramatically retreating to the garage every time the rain starts again, it’s been a busy start to the holiday weekend.

Meanwhile, Michigan continues to provide premium cold rain, hurricane-force winds, and emotional damage as our official spring weather… but the flowers are planted, the vegetables are going in, and morale is cautiously improving.

At this point we’re just working around whatever weather pattern Michigan wakes up and chooses each morning. Fresh produce, summer flowers, and fully stocked stand days are slowly but surely on the horizon around here!

The farm stand got a little upgrade this week thanks to our resident handyman, Kyle. 🔨🐾

The girls’ eggs have officially been moved into their fancy new cooler setup, because egg production is absolutely humming right now.

AND for the first time ever… we’ve got fresh homegrown Michigan asparagus at the stand! 🌱

Available now:
• Asparagus — Half-pound bundle: $1.50
• Asparagus — One-pound bundle: $2.50

Egg pricing remains:
🥚 Half dozen — $1.50
🥚 One dozen — $3.00

As always, return your egg cartons and get 50¢ off your next visit because we support recycling and enabling your farm stand addiction.

Meanwhile, Belle has been supervising garden prep with the confidence of someone who contributes exclusively through morale. She’s been hard at work inspecting rows, overseeing flock management, and of course serving as the face of the operation.

Stop by the stand and grab some asparagus before Belle decides we personally planted it just for her. 🌱🐶🥚

The weather finally broke in the Mitten and Laverne continues to be a daily menace to society.

He was briefly placed in temporary air jail while the situation was reviewed internally.

Unfortunately, management folded immediately.

Meanwhile, the farm stand is currently stocked to the absolute brim with duck eggs 🥚because the girls are apparently operating on a very aggressive production schedule this season.

Discounted pricing is still active while we attempt to regain control of inventory. 🦆🐾

Stop by the stand and stock up!

The ducks have returned from their daily Pilgrimage around the property - a very important daily expedition involving mud puddle inspections, pest control, yelling at invisible threats, and sticking their bills into places they absolutely do not belong.

Every single day they march out like brave explorers setting off into the wilderness (our property) and return approximately 30 minutes later like they’ve survived a life-changing journey.

Spring may be taking its sweet time here in Michigan, but here at Belle’s Bounty we’re already impatiently waiting for summer.

Belle’s Bounty is coming out of winter hibernation, and Miss Margarette understood the assignment.

Derby Day ready… feathered hat and all 🏇🦆💅🏼
