Coming into the new year I had aspirations of a timely blog post about the year in review. Then the holidays arrived, and our family all got covid and were sick for a week. The purist in me felt as though the moment for a year in review had passed, and yet I found myselfContinue reading “Celebrating 2023”

First Racey, and soon the rest of us followed suit testing positive for Covid and ending up on the couch with blankets, cups of tea and occasionally a fan (Lovett’s preferred fever reducer). All the while our spirited lagomorph rabbit kept watch with many needed snuggles, nibbles and jumping antics. One time she jumped upContinue reading “Lagomorph Lullabies”

Happy Holidays. We had a wonderful gathering for Christmas dinner here in our house. I love to cook and prepare meals and to do so in our home was a treat. Our meal was a gathering of family and friends who were also staying in town for the holidays, and this made for a funContinue reading “How to Prepare a Smoked Ham (and keep it tender and juicy)”

Gray skies, snow flurries, frozen morning mud puddles and afternoon muddy boots mark the coming solstice. Little snow has persisted here on the farm, and even the snowman and snow-tractor that Lovett and Layton built have bowed their heads and returned to the ground. I have a few quick announcements to make this week asContinue reading “New Offerings”

As daylight of 2023 creeps towards the solstice, Racey and I have been practicing the exercise of celebrating what we have, practicing the act of giving and receiving, and practicing setting goals for next year.  My celebration this past week was setting new goals for myself, and I’m excited to share some of the opportunitiesContinue reading “Check out our Gift Ideas”

What is in your lunch? We have been loving Sliced Ham in our packed lunches for the kids! We have a few new and exciting products to share! We’ve had them for a few weeks now, and with the prep for thanksgiving and projects I have not had time to share them with you. ThisContinue reading “Exciting New Products to Try”

Happy Thanksgiving. This year we celebrated thanksgiving in Cotuit, MA at my parents house. I spent many summers with my family at my grandfather’s house here in Cotuit learning to sail, exploring the sandy oak forest floor and the marvels of the ocean and Nantucket Sound.  Cotuit, and most areas of Eastern Massachusetts are theContinue reading “A Note of Thanksgiving”

We too are preparing for the holidays coming up. This takes many forms in our family and on the farm. Since our first years running our farm Racey and I wanted to shape our business and farm to allow for flexibility and not to be held captive by the farmer tradition of being “tied toContinue reading “Farm Preparations”

November is setting in and we’ve seen snow twice, and mornings are frosty. Chicken and cattle have left the farm for the season and only the new batch of piglets explore the woods and pastures. Racey, Healey, Kirsten and Holly have been busy packing orders during a busy month when folks get ready for theContinue reading “Preparing for the Holidays”

November brings such change on the farm. We had our first frost followed by morning temperatures of 22 F and snow squalls that left enough snow on the still green grass to slide around on. Often we enter November with sunny days without gloves and end the month with memories of family gatherings, meals withContinue reading “Holidays, we’ve got you covered”
