Welcome to the Weekend

Happy Friday everyone. Let's get the weekend started!

Another week of nice weather with temperatures cooling down just a bit. Cattle are still out in the pastures soaking up the November sun! The chickens will be moving into their winter quarters soon, but in the meantime they are happy to be outside.

Our bread bakers are celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary and took the weekend off from baking. We will not have fresh bread this weekend. We do, however, have some of their loaves in our freezer!

Our beef freezer is full again, yay! And we are happy to let you know that we've got ground beef patties back in stock. These are a customer favorite for sure. Stop by and check out the meat board to see what we've got.

Produce offerings this weekend will be: potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, onions, apples, garlic, greens, cabbage and spinach.

Have you tried the jams from Sidehill Farm? Jackson handles the jam display in the farm stand, making sure that all varieties are available for you! A couple of our favorites are the peach and the mixed berry. So good.

Chicken, pork, eggs and more. All inside our farm stand. Stop on by when you're in the area! We'd love to see you. Located at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly. Hours are Wednesday through Sunday from 12:00 - 5:00. Cash, checks and credit cards accepted.

Please be mindful of other customers, farm equipment and grandkids as you pull into our driveway. We've got plenty of parking in front of the farm stand.
