The Holiday Season is Here!
December is here and there's even a bit of snow on the ground! We've got our farm stand and website stocked for the holiday, so stop on by and shop with us!
With turkey season done, we enjoy the shift in our daily farm chores. Our cattle are enjoying the big red barn where they stay warm and dry! The laying hens have all joined together into one hen house for the winter. And our winter pigs are doing great and growing!
Farm stand happenings ...
Jackson has been adding his holiday decorating touch to the farm stand. I love discovering a piece of garland nestled here and there.
Our freezers are full of pork (chops, sausage, roasts, bacon, hams, hocks, and kielbasa); chicken (sold whole in various sizes); and beef (steaks, ground beef, roasts, ribs ans stew beef). Don't forget you can save .50/lb on our ground beef when you purchase 6lbs or more!
Maple syrup, maple almonds and maple cream are just waiting for you! Available on our website, or at our farm stand.
We are thankful to be partnering with so many amazing farmers and producers who supply our farm stand with . . . cider, milk, cheese, yogurt, pizza, honey, coffee beans, mustards, sauces, salsa, vinegar, produce, gelato, ravioli, pasta, soap, canvas prints, shadow boxes and more! Stop on by and see for yourself.
We thank you all for shopping locally and we look forward to seeing you this weekend. WE WILL BE CLOSING AT 4PM ON SUNDAY DECEMBER 5th.
Please be cautious and drive accordingly when driving in and out of our driveway. Be on the lookout for farm equipment, dogs, other customers, and grandchildren!
Smoked hams are now available in the farm stand and just in time for the holiday season. We enjoy a maple glaze on top of ours while it's in the oven. What's your go-to baked ham recipe?
Don't be caught without yours this holiday season .. stop by the farm stand and grab one while we got 'em. We've got sizes for everyone's dinner plans.
