To recap a whole year into one short blog feels like a lot of pressure. I am bound to miss some of the best moments of the year, while ignoring some of the hard challenges tackled. At the same time, life on the farm can feel incredibly similar one day to the next when living outside of the moments. But I do understand my worst attempt will be better than nothing, so here it goes.
Learn more about this year's turkey season and some of the challenges we all faced.
The holiday season is here, and this week might just be our busiest yet! From the warehouse to the office to the pastures, every part of the farm is buzzing with activity. Each task plays a role in what we love most: connecting you to the best food we can produce for your holiday celebrations.
At the change of each season, our weeks feel a bit fuller at the farm. As we prepare for cooler weather, close out outdoor market seasons, and gear up for winter meat drops, our incredible team keeps everything running smoothly. We’re grateful for the wonderful people we work with, making these busy times feel rewarding as we embrace the rhythms of farm life together.
We value the deep connections we make with our customers, whether it’s in person or online. We're committed to providing an alternative to the commercial food industry, offering pasture-raised meats that are both nutritious and responsibly-raised. In response to the growing demand for convenience, we’ve introduced home shipping.
October is National Co-op Month, a celebration cooperatives (organizations owned and operated by their members) that shape the future of food and farming. This year’s theme, “The Future is Cooperative,” highlights how co-ops are more than just stores or buying clubs—they are community-powered organizations that foster local connections, prioritize education, and promote sustainable food systems. By working together, food co-ops help bridge the gap between farmers and consumers, ensuring that local, ethical food remains at the heart of small communities.
From gathering the flock in the morning to enjoying turkey chats, the turkeys play an important role in our farm’s ecosystem and will soon provide nourishment for our Thanksgiving celebrations. Turkey reservations are now available, with several size and pick-up options to choose from. Plus, we’re inviting you to join us in the spirit of giving by donating a turkey to a family in need this holiday season.
In light of recent disruptions, such as port closures, it's a timely reminder of the importance of local food systems. By supporting local farms, you’re making a conscious decision to invest in sustainable farming practices. Your choice helps keep our food supply stable and supports the story behind each meal. Whether or not supply chain issues affect grocery shelves again, we're dedicated to keeping you informed on how our farm continues to grow and serve our community.
