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, March 3rd at 5:00 p.m.

Many of you have asked for a VISIT to our farm, so mark your calendar for Sunday, May 15th from 10:00 a.m. -- 6:00 p.m.! We will offer a walk around the farmhouse and Century old barns, describing the old commisonary and wellhouse, hen house, smoke house, Mule barn, Seed barn, and more. You will be able to drive down the road to the greenhouse and organic vegetable fields. Bring your cooler and stock up on organic ripe strawberries and asparagus along with meats.
'Brats on a bun" will be served for lunch if you like to eat lunch on the premises. We will be one stop on the "Women in Ag: Local Foods Tour" this day... so plan to visit other farms in Franklin County also on May 15th. Details coming... There is no charge to participate in the tour and visit the eight farms on the tour.
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.
