Good morning, our wonderful Customers and Friends!
We will have lots of wonderful pastured PORK and grass fed ANGUS BEEF in stock... order your favorite cuts today. Our natural blends of spices and herbs, along with the perfect grind, make our SAUSAGES so delicious.. check out the varieties listed below. We are using the same blends my late wonderful farmer Grandmother Leonard used in her sausages in the early 1900's (after finding her recipes). I am going to tell you a secret; if you have never tried our "Country X sage" Pork Sausage... either Mild or Hot... you are missing out! We also have PORK Roasts: Boston Butt, Picnic, thick CHOPS, and more. We have thick, meaty LOIN CHOPS of Lamb or Chevon. This is Saturday's link for placing orders. Cutoff time to place an order using this link is Thursday, February 10th at 5:00 p.m..

Thank goodness for a few days of warmer weather.... the plants inside the greenhouse are beginning to grow again... lettuce, arugula, beets, swiss chard and kale. The ewes and newborn lambs will be turned back on pasture this week with warmer weather ... under the watchful eye of Mario and the three large white guardian dogs, etc, Sally, George, and Lou. They are constantly watching for predators, such as coyotes.
Many of you have asked us to expand our organic fruit production... so we are scheduled to plant a half acre of organic BLUEBERRIES this winter. Once the strawberries have been harvested, we can go right into harvesting blueberries. The farm recently purchased a mulch bark spreader, to aid in the production of the acid-loving blueberry fruit crop. This is a new endeavor for the farm and we are excited about it.
Stop by the booth this Saturday and speak with our Dear Italian Friends and Ace Helpers.. Francesco and Sofia. This will be Francesco's last market before he returns to the US later in the summer; Both of them will return to Italy to continue their agricultural work; You can visit with Sofia several more weeks however. They will be terribly missed.
