to the market.

We will be offering a small amount of raw goats milk (for pet consumption) and in the upcoming months also raw jersey A2 milk! Coming soon Kiefer. raw cows, butter, cheeses and more.This week we have Raw Pet Milk, required labeling by the our State Regulations. Read bio. Milk has been tested and gone through the proper channels inorder to sell.

Linwood Lamb, RC Farms, Quarter Spring Farm, Triple LLL Farm and Tailwynds Farm: all have several meat options as well as some ‘Summer Specials’

From Linwood Lamb:

Weather is warming up and so are our grills. Try some lamb on the grill for 4th of July celebration or anytime this summer. All the cuts listed under Linwood Lamb work great on the grill:
Lamb Loin Chops
Lamb Rib Chops
Lamb Leg Steaks
Feta Cheese and Lamb Sliders (My girls really like these)
Ground Lamb

If you need recipes or tips on how to cook, just ask.

As a general rule, we grill all of our lamb to a 135-140 degree F internal temperature. The thinner cuts only take 6 or 8 minutes to grill.
For the thicker cuts (rib and loin chops) I split the grill in half and put all of the charcoal on one side (hot side; direct cooking) and leave the other side empty (cool side; indirect cooking). I sear the chops on the hot side for 1 min then flip them and sear the other side of the chop for 1 minute. Then I move the chops to the cool side of the grill and let them cook indirectly with the top down for another 8-10 minutes until the temperature reaches 135. Seasonings are pretty simple: salt and pepper, and maybe a little ginger.

Terry Treasures:

Welcome back, she will be have some beautiful outdoor Spinners that can be used inside our outside. Watch for her updates.

They are the perfect summertime treat; refreshing, bright lemon flavors, slightly muted with house made vegan buttermilk (coconut milk based), resulting in a super-soft & light cookie that you’re sure to LOVE. We finish the cookies with a drizzle of delicious lemony icing. Sold in 6-packs.

Now available in a pint size jar – our organic, vegan chocolate syrup. It’s canned & SO much better than Hershey’s could ever dream of being, it’s uber-clean ingredients allow you to indulge guilt-free and miss NOTHING because it’s really that delicious. Enjoy it on ice cream, in an iced mocha, or make the best chocolate milk. It’s still available in our original half pint jars too.
