Happy farmer boys feeding hay to animals and sipping elderberry shrub!
Friends we are blessed and honored to be your farmers! Thank you for your trust. We are trying to handle the influx of folks wanting a safe source of food so please bare with us as we process emails and prepare invoices. We want to serve as many of you as we can. This is just our biggest planting time so we aren’t as able to keep up with admin! If we have responded to your csa sign up then you will have a spot, we just might not get your invoice done for a week. Thanks for your patience.
We have made a few changes to the system to keep up with safety. We have discontinued the swap bin for trading veggies out in the cabin to eliminate folks from touching each others vegetables. I’ll be sending recipes so you don’t have to be scared of your beets (you know who you are :)! We are so glad to see folks visiting the animals still and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine when they are picking up at the farm! Please continue to do so.
Also for this coming month’s meat pick up we have made an online order form so we can pack your boxes with just what you want. If you want to come pick up during normal hours so we can all say hello and get some fresh air and sunshine together we are still welcoming that! We just want to minimize folks handling each others packages. You may also choose to have us deliver the package to you in your car (during those hours or by appointment). We all have different levels of comfort during this uncertain time, so we are here to serve you in whatever capacity works for you. Pick up dates are: April 2nd and 4th
We continue to maintain our normal safety practices while handling your precious food in addition to extra measures in cleaning the cabin frequently.
ON A LIGHTER NOTE:
We are really on baby watch over here with two cows about to give birth. We are going to be posting pictures as soon as it happens. We will also have a naming contest so get your kids thinking of names! One mom is named Rosemary and we usually name her babies herb names too, and one is named Sapphire and this is her first calf with us. Get your thinking caps on! Study some herbs and maybe gemstones with your children today for ideas! Let’s see who goes first! When I was due with our last 3 babies we also had a cow due around the same time. All three times the cow won and I was pregnant longer! Maybe this time I’ll be first (hint: yes the farm Mamma is due in August)!
Have a peaceful day enjoying something different than you expected, but it is a blessing to find joy in things.
Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
Blessings,
Your Farm Family
Last years babies are still worth smiling about!
