At the Farm, Market, or Retail Processing Outlet on July 25th, 2010
We are pleased to expand the availability of locally produced meat from our farm and other sustainable growers. Give us a call and let us help you make the choices that best meet the need of your family.
Let us know if you need a wholesale or retail price list (naturally raised or our new locally raised price list). Call (765) 324-2161.
Newly processed this week……This week we will be processing grassfed beef and naturally fed pastured poultry for retail as well as toll processed freezer beef and pork (for our customers to take back for their own customers). Once again, our pasture raised chicken will be processed on Thursday and available fresh or frozen. These chickens have been raised on pasture and fed non GMO grains without the feed additives and antibiotics we want to avoid. Now is the time to get your order in, especially for the breasts that go fast.
Coming Soon: In the next few weeks we will continue processing grass fed beef and lamb. This is the best time of year for grassfed meats as the benefit of the summer grass has been maximized before we go into the heat of August when the growth slows down. The best possible marbling and tenderness can be had with the health benefits of high CLA’s and Omega 3’s. If you have been thinking about a half a beef or a whole lamb, now is the time to get in your order. We also have a few certified organic beef ready to cut that were fed a very minimal amount of certified organic corn for a tender meat product.

Class Time: Fall Gardening on July 25th, 2010
Educational workshop series-Fall Gardening
CSA Update on July 25th, 2010
This week we had a volunteer (WWOOF er) help put together CSA baskets. What fun it is to fill a basket of goodies. I am hoping Phoebe left the farm with good thoughts of fresh food. We have been blessed to have a fellow property owner host several WWOOfers that she then sends our way for a day or two. Check it out; it is a neat organization.
This weeks selections included:
Tomatoes, carrots, potatoes, beets, summer squash, trombocinni squash, kale, and onions.
We enjoyed hashbrowns this morning for breakfast. They are so easy to make if you have a food processor to grate the potatoes. Just grate and fry in a bit of oil. Salt and pepper to taste. They went well with sauteed kale and the Queso Blanco cheese made during our Home Dairying class. The yogurt turned out perfectly thick and was transferred to the fridge this morning. It will pair well with sauteed squash. My kids have been after a treat of zucchini bread which will go nicely with the butter we made. Hopefully the class time was an inspiration of how easy it is to make dairy products (The “failed” cottage cheese was utilized to make Queso Blanco so there was no waste.) I enjoyed talking with another volunteer at the farm for the day who expressed how satisfying good food is. He and his wife made the switch to eating locally raised, whole foods within the past year and he expressed how joyous it is to eat like this. (He has also lost 15 pounds just because he is not eating processed foods.) I hope you too have been blessed with good food from the farm.
Next week during class we will talk about what is being planted for our fall baskets in our Fall Gardening Workshop.
