Willow Haven Pasture Raised Chicken is HERE + meet Red Cat Farms

Posted on July 1st, 2022 by Suzanne Williams

Hello Farm Friends, 

We hope you are enjoying the bounty of produce each week in your deliveries.

This week you will see fresh herbs, green garlic, and Farmer Reuben is giving you a choice of green or yellow squash this time.

Farmer Reuben also wants to be sure that you know about our very own chicken that was Pasture-raised here on the farm. 

IN STOCK- Legs, Wings, Thighs, Breasts (bone in/skin on), Soup Chickens, and lots of backs/necks to make broth.

You will want to grab it while you can! 

Calling all bakers- we now have chemical-free, Non GMO flours, oats, and rye & wheat berries available for you.

Not far from us in Germansville is Red Cat Farm. They grow heritage grains and wheats, which are old-standing strains that have not been hybridized or much altered for mass market production. We are pleased to now offer their products to you. Take a look and add some to your cart this week. 

Don't forget to check out all the other farm-fresh extras that you can add to your box each week.  We are always adding more!  

This week: Delmonico Steak, Various Coffees from Local Roasters, Walnut Bread, and Chocolate Bars are in stock.

Thank you for supporting your local farm.

We'll keep farming for you,

Reuben, Tessa, and the Farm Crew @ Willow Haven Farm

 

REMINDERS & TIPS :

Check your preferences: your box will be automatically filled with the vegetables that you prefer, or in the case of a Market Box, it will be filled with all of your preferences.  You can always swap items out, but sometimes our swaps are limited so it is best to have your box filled with your preferences on the first pass. You can even change your preferences throughout the season.

Customize: Once you receive this email, you can now customize your box.  Swap items in your box and add extra items you like from our ever-growing selection of high-quality organic foods and products.  Simply add them to your box and your card will be charged upon finalization of your order. The customization window will open on Friday afternoon and it will close at 7pm on Sunday.  

Add another item to your cart:  Check to see if you have "more value" left in your share by going to customization - click on your cart - then click back to the items. If a green bar appears that says you can add items because you have left over value in your share, try adding another veggie or low cost item to your cart to see. 

Boxes and labels: Before returning your box (and other packing materials) for pick up - please remove your box label. SAVE YOUR LABEL if you are missing an item or something is unsatisfactory. Sending us a picture of your label will help us diagnose our error in the pack line and make improvements. (You can discard your labels afterward.)
