Tues - Fri: 10am - 6pm & Sat - Mon: Closed
I hope you’re enjoying this wonderful brisk morning as much as we are. This time of year is so much fun with the contrast of whether the brisk mornings the hot afternoons and back to the cool nights. Since the College market has shut down for the season I feel like I haven’t kept up with you as much.
Yesterday afternoon, Brian and I got back from being out of town for just one night and I feel like I had lost a complete month! I was totally overwhelmed with the amount of things I had to do in order to get ready for the next day. When I went out to tend to our layers I realized how big they have gotten! How these young ladies jumped up so fast on me without me even realizing! So I forced myself to sit with them for a moment and calm down. Something about their noises and gentle grazing is extremely calming and I realized everything will be OK and it will all come in Gods time. Thank you ladies for that peace!
This time of year is always such a nice time to sloooow down and take time for your friends and family. Especially on the farm things are going to slow down drastically. Turkeys, ducks and a few pigs go into the freezer along with some older hens. The animals that at still here start getting tucked into their various corners. Every year we like to take time to celebrate our friends/customers by inviting you to the farm.
If you haven’t joined us before for our turkey pick up day it’s sort of our way of slowing down and getting back in touch. Some families have even decided to make it an annual tradition! They love to come out to our farm, grab their turkey, and see how the farm has changed over the year. This year we’re going to try to make it a little more special. We’re going to have a hayrides, I’m so excited to share with you some of our hard work!
