-- Winter Share Week 4 --

Good afternoon Trevor-

 

It's beginning to feel like winter. A few sure signs:


Frozen Ground. AKA, poor man's concrete. Days like this make me smile. It's 25 degrees and tolerable. But most of all, the ground is frozen and there is no mud. A muddy winter on the farm is miserable.


Frozen Water Lines. Not as fun as frozen ground. Someday I'll get ahead enough to get everything drained and blown out before they freeze. This week, it's just the sprinklers in the the flower beds. The important part - water to the animals - is fine. Life goes on.


Eggnog. Yes, the kitchen is busy today making our first batch of thick, custardy eggnog. Only 100 jars available this week.


Moving Beef Out. We moved the beef into their winter barn yesterday. All but 8 who decided to revolt. I've wasted at least 6 hours chasing these jerks around trying to get them on the trailer. Now it's a matter of pride that they cooperate. After this newsletter, wish me luck outsmarting them because I can't outrun them.


Winter Schedule. Also, a small reminder about the delivery schedule. This week is a on "ON Week" and next week is an off week. After that, we have deliveries the weeks of Dec 16 and Dec 30.


Thanks

Trevor

Eggnog

This is the first week we are offering eggnog for the season. Supply is limited, so please preorder.


We can only make as much eggnog as we can get cream. Heavy whipping cream is our limiting factor. So we'll make two batches each week - approx 100 jars. Next week, is an FFM off week. We will deliver next week's eggnog to OCP.


Each jar of eggnog starts with 6 farm fresh eggs. We blend the eggs with organic cane sugar, then temper that into the cream and milk. This custard thickens up then we must chill it quickly to stop the cooking process. This naturally thick eggnog contains no gums or synthetic stabilizers. If the spices settle to the bottom, please just shake up the jar.

Weekly Promotions

Beef and Bacon Burger - $6

Our processor made a mistake and packed our beef and bacon burgers to the same spec as our Steak Burgers - smaller diameter, and thicker. They also accidentally only put 3 burgers per pack, 1#. So in short, it's a mess and gets confusing at the warehouse.


So we need to move out these burgers fast. 1# packages, $7. 3 thick, 1/3 lb burgers per package.

Apple Sampler Bag - $9

2 apples each of honeycrisp, ambrosia, pink lady, and fuji.

Bacon - Limited Stock

Bacon is our most popular pork cut; sadly, we only get about 15 lbs per hog. It goes much faster than the shoulder roasts, sausage, and everything else on the hog.


So I know we've been out of stock recently on it, but we did finally get some back in. It will be gone again soon.


Next time we'll make bacon will be January. Right now our processor doesn't do any custom processing in December because of deer season. OCP has their own bacon they make in house, but you should call before going down to make sure it is in stock. They sell out weekly as well.
