Hello and Happy Thanksgiving: A time to harvest, appreciate what is and stock up for the winter ahead. We're sad that we've had hard frost already so all those beautiful flowers are not looking the same and many crops are finished up now.
Transition times are always tricky, while it can feel sad that the summer is leaving and the winter ahead it's important to stay present and respect all the gifts we currently have. An abundance of food, a wonderful farm community, the beautiful fall colours and the opportunity to be grateful that we can gather together this year.
Turkey time we have some turkey's available, please contact us for more details and to guarantee the tastiest bird ever (we think so!). They're big birds and can also be cut in half or quarters for some delicious winter meals. I'm looking forward to making some amazing soup stock after our big meal.
