Fresh Chicken, Saturday Farm Tour and a Brunchier Sunday Brunch

Hi,
Our beautiful, plump pastured chickens will fill the cooler ... whole birds and lots of parts.  A new order of Nettle Meadow cheeses has arrived and freshly roasted fair-trade organic coffee from Stoneledge Farm, too.  Bob Beyfuss has picked oyster mushrooms, available this weekend. The farm store and cafe are open both Saturday and Sunday from 11am-3pm

Saturday Farm Tour
Make a reservation and take a guided tour of the farm, seeing the animals and the methods we use to raise them.  Meet at the cafe at 11am, Saturday.  Next guided tour Sunday, Aug 11.

Jane's Plants
Stop by and chat with Jane ... all things plants! She will have organically grown potted perennial herbs and flowers for sale.

Coming up:
Lexington Farmers Market, Friday, Aug 2, 5-7pm
Saugerties Farmers Market, Saturdays, 10am-2pm

August 10 & 11, Fresh Grassfed Lamb and Mutton! 
If you want a specific cut reserved for you, let me know right away.

Taking Orders for Brook Trout
The final fresh brook trout for the summer will be available August 17 & 18.  These fish are raised at SUNY Cobleskill Aquaculture Program, and are sweet, cleaned, whole, antibiotic free fish.  The fish will range in size but average around a pound.  $9/lb.  Let me know how many you want!  Also available for pick up at the Saugerties Farmers Market by reservation only.  They freeze beautifully!  Put a couple away.

And Turkeys!
The poults are in the brooder shed. Time to reserve your Thanksgiving Turkey!  We ask for a $10 deposit.
