Hi Folks. All good here. Here’s the news for this week. Starting with a big one…from now on we will have eggs available on Sundays at the Anne Arundel County Farmers Market! I’d tried and tried to be allowed to sell eggs there and finally, in a mix of persistence, patience and circumstances…we’re good to go. Hooray!

Extra Markets. The holidays bring up some extra and one-off market opportunities and, thankfully, we have a good crew to allow us to attend these offerings. Here’s where we’ll be.

  • Every Saturday/Sunday @ Anne Arundel County Farmers Market.
  • Every Sunday (7,14,21) @ Honey’s Harvest Farm 11-3pm.
  • Saturday the 13th @ Severna Park Farmer’s Market Christmas Special !!!
  • Friday 19 @ Old Stein Inn Holiday Market 5-9pm.
  • Saturday 20 @ the Deale Christmas Market.

Plus our regular farm store hours 10-2pm on Saturday’s. Please reach out if you’d like to stop by at a different time…we’ll make it happen. Call/text/email work well.

Plus our regular home delivery routes for the next Wednesday’s and a special Anne Arundel delivery Monday Dec. 22nd, because we like to be home on Christmas Eve, and want you to be all set by that point too. Order for delivery here.

The last thing. Oh my boneless pork chop! I traditionally lean toward bone in cuts. But thanks to the damaged packaging in the market cooler, I cooked up some of the new boneless chops we got. They were moist and tender and possible the best tasting chops I’ve ever had. Not super thick cut but plenty thick. Just a little dry rub and olive oil and onto the grill. So good. The other cut that got my attention is our new Sage Chicken Sausage. It’s a loose sausage and really really tasty. We tried it with tacos and then it made its way into a stir fry. As we get into next season we hope that it will become a regular item we carry, but for now we’ve got what we got and once we run out it will be May before there’s more. I recommend you check it out. Shop all our pasture raised meats here.

Alright. It’s time to layer up and get to work. We still have the sheep and laying hers out at the rental properties and they are still getting rotated to fresh ground weekly and today they are getting moved. The sheep are on their last graze of the field that the turkeys were on…it’s amazingly green and nice looking right now. I hope all is well with all of you. Thank you for everything.

Big Storm Big Trip

Two big things going on for us this week, one of which I’m sure will affect you as well. First off, there’s a big storm coming this weekend. It look like it’s going to leave quite a mess. In true “farmers try our best” fashion, the Sunday Anne Arundel Farmers Market will be moving to Saturday (9-noon) this week. There will be NO Sunday market this week. All Sunday pre-orders will be there Saturday. You can also still order for Saturday until noon tomorrow (Friday). If you need to make other arrangements to pick up, just reach out. Now let’s look into why there’s a giant storm coming…..

Big Week of Not Much at All

Hi folks. We had a quite uneventful week here. The farm crew kept things moving and got started on a few projects. The Calvert/PG delivery route grew a little bit and we’re happy that option is picking up some new customers. Family time involved an eye doctor visit and some cavities getting filled. Like I said, not a lot to report on the farm front. Things I reminded myself of this week. Our pork chops are awesome, T-bone steaks are something special and our bacon can’t be beat. Hope you had a good week too.

Meet the Team

Welp, we’re moving ahead into another year. To be honest, the farm doesn’t have any major resolutions. We’re going to keep our rotational grazing going and continue our daily move poultry like we do. We’ll continue to source clean non-gmo feed from St. Mary’s county, and continue to use only small family run butcher shops. The plan is to be at all the same markets and to drive the same delivery routes. We do plan to raise a little more chicken and egg layers than last year, and hope to stay a bit more stocked in grass-fed beef. But, otherwise, we’re going to keep on going. If it aint broke….you get the gist.
