Bonlee Grown Farm has Chrysanthemums! Burgundy and yellow are our most popular, but we also have unique shades like white, pink, purple, rose, and lots of different oranges and bronze! It's still early in the season and not all colors are blooming, so if you're looking for a particular color just ask and we'll set it aside as a preorder. Let us know what you need, they'll be gone before you know it! Call/Text Amy at 919-548-0977 or email amyraysugg@embarqmail.com.
We also have mixed pansies, yellow blotch pansies, dianthus, snapdragons and violas! These bedding plants will last through the winter...when it's cold you'll be glad you planted them now! For the inside we have easy succulents that love sunshine, aloe, moses-in-the-cradle, and more!
Stock up on the last of the summer pickles! Bread and butter pickles, pickled squash, chow chow, cucumber relish, pickled okra, hot cayenne vinegar, local honey, triple berry jam, raspberry rhubarb, strawberry, banana butter, and strawberry fig jam!

Farmhouse Cheese: We sold our Ricotta so quickly last week, that we are making it again for this Saturday. It has a delicious flavor from our rich Jersey cows’ milk. We also have Paneer, and YoYo, our cream-top yogurt style, Calvander, aged Carolina Moon, washed rind Hickory Grove, pungent Danziger, and fresh Dairyland Farmers cheese as well as Hot Farmers. Check our booth to see if we have enough to bring Dill Farmers as well. Use Farmers for some Chili Rellenos while chilies are available, top a burger with Hickory Grove, and make a Sunday frittata with our aged Calvander., pictured above. It was made last December and this batch has some nutty notes that are great for baked baked gratins.
Pastured Beef: We think our beef is the best! Jersey meat is known for flavor and tenderness and customers love it. We have Ground Beef, some Steaks, Chuck roasts, Brisket, and stew beef. Check our board for other cuts we may bring. Our herd is pasture-raised and Animal Welfare Approved.
Whey Fed Pork: Our sausage is currently only available for pick up at the farm 1-2pm Saturday for a few more weeks. WE have 5 flavors of dinner sausages, Sage and Maple Breakfast Links, Traditional Country Breakfast in bulk , and ground pork. Preorder through our website

At our booth you'll find a rainbow of flavors displaying our spreadable cheeses, nestled in among our pure chevrè, aged bloomy rind cheeses, yogurts, gelato, fudge, & even soaps. As NC's pioneer farmstead goat dairy, we've been treating all our goats like celebrities since 1991 and strive to do the same for our customers!

In September we will have our monthly seasonal flavor Traffic Jam. It consists of our plain chevre and a jam consisting of red raspberries, blueberries and strawberries. It is great on a bagel, graham cracker, tea biscuit or toast! Try some today!

On the night of Nov 28, 1941 there was a fire in the Cocoanut Grove Nightclub in Boston that claimed 492 lives and sent 442 to hospitals with burns and smoke inhalation. If you have a morbid turn of mind like mine you will find the Wikipedia account of this fire and the innovations in burn treatments it necessitated quite fascinating. It much interests me that the innovation of one desperate physician is not mentioned. Supplies of conventional treatments exhausted, this fellow put honey on the burns and had as good or better results than other treatments. This is known lore in beekeeping journals but evidently too snake oil for Wikipedia.
Brings me to Manuka honey. Leptospermum scoparium is a shrubby tree native to New Zealand which produces a viscous, brown honey containing several unusual plant chemicals, in particular methylglyoxal which has bactericidal properties. It has become accepted, particularly in the EU, for treating festering infections such as diabetic ulcers that don’t respond to antibiotics. All honeys are useful for wounds because they coat the wound and upon contact with moisture, they have an enzyme that produce a steady stream of hydrogen peroxide. Wears bacteria out.
Manuka honey has become famous because of medical imprimatur from some quarters which has given it a glamorous reputation.. In 2014, 1700 legitimate tons were produced in New Zealand and 10,000 tons were on the world market. NZ has tightened that up with chemical certifications, but the problem continues. Now NZ beekeepers vie for locations near manuka groves and poison each others beehives. As flavors go it is so so but is being marketed as unusually beneficial for internal consumption. Maybe, but really maybe not. Prices I have investigated range from $70 to $300 per pound. I’m a little cheaper. Shop local.

The mushrooms are loving the temperature decrease we are FINALLY starting to have. Happy mushrooms means we will be at market this weekend with a good variety of oysters, Lions mane, cinnamon caps and possibly some other varieties. We will have a sale on Lions mane- 2 quarts for $10 so you can stock up!
We will also have grow bags back in stock. These are ready to fruit, at home grow kits to get fresh blue oysters growing in your kitchen.
Dried Reishi will be available in limited quantities as well.
We strongly encourage preorders to reserve your favorites and make pick up quick.
Orders are open until Friday at 1PM.

** FARM NEWS:
Thank goodness, "HE" is back! Mario was able to return to the US over the weekend after a much needed vacation with his family at their beautiful mountainous village home in southern Mexico. It is nothing like experience in understanding growing vegetables and handling livestock like he knows... he also LOVES his farm job and he is a perfectionist at it. Jose and Mario are finishing planting the cool season plants today (Monday), I hope, with much irrigation to follow.
While he was gone, I completed the farm's annual USDA ORGANIC certification with an auditor. It was an intense visit with much record-keeping provided on a daily basis, use of non-GMO/non-treated organic plants, wholesome (non-fumigated soil), much more... and it is expensive. We use lots of cover crops and compost on our soils.. the soil is where it all starts. We feel it is worth the time, effort, and costs to provide you, our valued customer, with a certification of ORGANICS... with a pledge to you that you are getting a healthy, wholesome product! And THANK YOU, for understanding the occasional blemishes on the products. Also, note even our FLOWER bouquets are certified organic!
Thank you for your continued support of our Century Family Farm!

Back by popular demand....our sausage and our stew cuts.
Sausage- the perfect blend of spices and the specific cuts of meat are surely what make ours so darn good!
Stew Meat- Our 1 inch cubes are perfect for soups and stews. A bit of feedback from our customers...
"So tender and melts in your mouth"
"Perfect for curries"
"Try the tangine"
We are gearing up for the holidays with our felted wool wreaths, pumpkins, garlands and such. Each week our table will display something new!
Something you may not know about our farm and farming practices....
Folks ask us if our farm is organic. We respond that we follow organic practices but we are not certified. The certification process is quite expensive, time consuming, and arduous.
Obviously we agree with organic practices or we wouldn't adhere to them. We believe in caring for our soils and pasture grasses as if chemicals and petroleum additives never existed and we raise our
sheep without the use of growth hormones or feed additives. Our farming practices are both sustainable and regenerative.
Want something specific? We're happy to accomodate, just send us a message by Friday night.
Also, follow us on Instagram for all the farm goings on.

We spotted Halloween decorations at a local store in July. So perhaps we’re late to this game. For Halloween, Sunday, Oct. 31, and for the Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos), which is Tuesday, Nov. 2, we have a variety of skull-themed T-shirts. Some of the skulls (calavera in Spanish) are quite colorful. We even have a few for the little goblin in your life.
