802.259.3707 | | | | | /tbody> Welcome to the weekend everyone! It's been a fantastic week of summer weather here at the farm, and the weekend looks good too! It's a busy time of the year for farmers! Haying season is in full swing, making for long days in the hayfield! Chores include moving our cattle every day to fresh pasture. We've got 3 batches of meat birds in chicken tractors, with 1 batch still in their brooder. The laying hens will be getting a new house soon. They are just as excited as we are! New pullets will be joining our flock next month! We had our 2,000th farm stand customer for 2025 last weekend! We can't thank you enough for choosing to shop local and supporting, not only our farm, but our farm partners as well. FRESH chicken season is here. We will have fresh chicken in the farm stand through the weekend. Have you tried one yet? What are you waiting for? Simply the best chicken you'll ever have. Fresh bread arrives on Saturday, and sells out very quickly. You know the drill .. get here earlier rather than later if you're looking to score some bread! Ground beef and pre-made patties are the hot sellers this week. Keep those grills going! And while you're grilling, try one of our ham steaks! Super good. We invite you to stop by and visit our farm stand. Located at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly. Hours are Wednesday through Sunday from 12:00-6:00. Bring a friend - don't shop alone! As we are a working farm, please be mindful of hay equipment, customer traffic, and grandkids as you drive in and out of the driveway. |
