Turkeys On The Farm

Some of our best family moments on the farm are spent caring for the turkeys. We chase and gather any birds that perched and wandered overnight, and chat with them to amuse ourselves with the flock’s response to whatever noise we come up with that day. These beautiful birds are spreading natural fertilizer on the soil, contributing to a vibrant farm ecosystem, and providing nourishment for all of us in the late Fall.

So many eggs...

So many eggs...

In our latest blog, Renee reflects on the rhythm of the New Year, finding steadiness not in perfect resolutions but in simple, nourishing meals shared at home. From easy weeknight dinners to a filling egg casserole that carried the family through busy days, she shares how cooking with intention, and leaning into an abundance of farm eggs this season, helps keep everyone well fed and grounded through winter.

Real Food for a Stronger Year

Each new year brings a lot of noise about who we should be and how we should live.

This reflection looks back at what last year’s word revealed, why simple and steady habits still matter, and how those ideas shaped something new we’re sharing from the farm as we move into another year together.

The weeks around Christmas are some of the fullest of our year. Full freezers, full days, full hearts. As we moved through the rush of holiday orders, winter chores, and time gathered around tables with people we love, we were reminded why this work and these moments matter. This reflection looks back on a season of hard work, shared meals, and deep gratitude, both on the farm and at home, as we step into a new year.
