Maple Syrup Season is done for 2022

  • It was not a great season but we got a little extra sap flow near the end thanks to the recent cold days we had to endure! (the only good reason to have snowfall in mid-April).
  • We have got a bunch of our kegs full of our maple syrup that we will be bottling over the year, so if you'd like to get your hands on some, watch for it in the swap and/or extras section!

U-Pick Flower Opportunities this Summer! 

  • We are making our first attempt at growing u-pick flowers.
  • We have got the seed and will be planting in the coming weeks. 
  • *IF* we are able to grow some wildflowers, we will be organizing u-pick days. SO, cross your fingers for us and hopefully, we will see our first u-pick flower days this summer. 

Our Programs Pricing with all that is going on

  • Right now our prices are forecasted to remain the same with little increase over time in response to the prices of everything increasing so drastically. 
  • We have locked in a lot of purchase pricing for the year. 
  • As always, we will be transparent with you all if we are in need of "one-off" price increases. 

 

Farm Store in Zephyr opens every other Saturday. (See calendar on website)

Home Delivery? Invest in a cooler for your veggies.

  • If you have signed up for a home delivery route, we highly suggest getting a cooler for us to leave your produce in while it waits for you to get home because it gets very cold in the winter.

Please Return Boxes & Red Cooler Bags!

  • Home Delivery: Please leave the box & containers out for the drivers to pick up.
  • Pick Up Locations: Leave the box and/or items there and we will pick them up. 
  • To Return Red Bags 
    • Remove the sticker with your name on it
    • You can keep the white bags OR if they are 100% clean and in-tack, you can leave them inside to be returned. 
    • If the meat has thawed in the red bag please wash & sanitize before returning. 
  • We accept 12 slot egg cartons & mason jar returns.
