A Letter From Your Farmer


The Christmas tree lights cast a soft glow in the night sky as snowflakes

float on the wind, silently falling to the ground. The mistletoe and

stockings are hung, and the gifts are wrapped. Hot Cocoa and cookies

await Santa’s arrival. A peace and calm settles over me as Christmas

carols fill the night air with Jingle Bells, and Silent Night.


Reflecting on all the different ways that God has blessed me, calms my

heart. He sent a baby from heaven to a stable of hay to be the King of

the world. A Savior to love us, care for us, and bring peace to this

world. When the noise of this world starts to overwhelm me, I am

reminded to keep my eyes fixed on Jesus. Only He can give the peace

and calm that my heart desires. I hope that this Christmas season will

be full of peace and calm for you, your family, and friends.


Market season has ended. The drops have begun. We have traded the

chaos of summer, for the challenge of winter. None of this would be

possible without you. We have been blessed with great people, You!

You posses a passion for good food, and make a commitment to

Jake’s, for which we are forever grateful and humbled.


We want to thank you for a great 2022 season while looking forward to 2023.

As you celebrate this Christmas with family and friends, may you know

the Joy, Peace, and Love that God gives to each of us.

Merry Christmas!

Lou Ann Robinson (your 6th generation farmer)

A Breath of Fresh Air

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.

Connecting with You, Wherever You Are

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.

The Future is Cooperative

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.
