ROSIE BELLE FARM NEWS & CSA LIST FOR OCTOBER 10-12, 2017
FALL FAMILY FARM DAY WAS A BLAST!

  • Thank you to everyone who was able to share the day with us! The goats got their fair share of food and attention, while the children were properly posicled! A good time was had by all!

Busy. Busy! BUSY! The Farmer and Matt are busy loading up hundreds of hay bales for the Winter and I am pushing up my sleeves and tackling the hundreds (thousands!) of apples that are waiting to be turned into applesauce, apple butter, muffins, tarts, and so on. Farming is truly a "Cause and Effect" lifestyle. If we don't do the work now, we will be sorry later! I guess that is true for all of us!
 Starting in October we are offering the opportunity to pick up on the Farm one Saturday each month. This Month's Farm Pick Up option is on October 28 from 11-2. We will have fancy farm biscuits and popsicles for those who wish to hang for a bit.
Last Call for Thanksgiving Turkeys We have to finalize our order for Natural Free Range Pastured Turkeys so get your order in THIS WEEK to enjoy a tender and juicy bird in November! $6 per pound and the turkeys usually weigh 20-22 pounds. Spendy but worth it.
Fall is in full swing and the chickens are helping to carve the pumpkins! The holidays will be upon us before you know it. Need the perfect gift for someone special? Consider a Rosie Belle Farm CSA gift certicate!

The delivery dates for the next few months are as follows:

October 10, October 12

 C'MON! WHILE YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT IT! DO IT!

ITEMS WILL DEFINITELY SELL OUT! 
GET ORDERS IN FAST!

We have some new items and some old favorites this week. Schmeer some Smoked Salmon Farm Cheese on a Bialy for a To Die For breakfast treat. Local Salmon? I can hear the skepticism in your voices! Yes, Local Salmon. Kinda Sorta. We participate in a Seafood CSA and get fresh caught Salmon flown into Nashville. How cool is that? We are going to cold smoke a bunch tomorrow and turn it into a spectacular cheese spread. Vegans will enjoy the Spiced Nutty Lentil Patties which are accented by a killer Mushroom Vinaigrette. We are offering both a vegetarian and carnivore versions of a duck egg

YOUR CSA PLAN OPTIONS:


 There are three programs to choose from each time and you DO NOT have to commit to anything more than the basic program. However, you CAN choose to order more if it works for your schedule. You will never lose your points. If you are out of town, you will be charged, but simply roll your points over to the following weeks.

BASIC PLAN: 32 point per month, $150 per month, $75 payable the 2nd and 4th week of the month

WANT A BIT MORE PLAN: 50 points per month, $210 per month, $105 due twice monthly.

THE FULL MONTY: 65 points per month, $260 monthly, $130 payable twice monthly.

You can flit between plans as you see fit. Milk can be frozen, with minor effect. Breads freeze beautifully. Yogurts last three weeks. eggs last several weeks in refrigerator, so stocking up may make sense for you!
