FARM NEWS (4 notes)

#1 - No Bagels This Week but....
|
Attention bagel people. Unfortunately, we will not have bagels at this Friday's Night Market. BUT... I have prepped double the amount of bread loaves compared to what we usually do. We've made a good amount of Cheese and Garlic (because people seem to like that one), lots of simple loaves and we've even brought back our seedy whole wheaty! With this market in the afternoon, I am able to squeeze in an extra few rounds in the oven and bring you all lots and lots of, hot-out-the-oven, freshly baked loaves.

#2 - Egg Price Increase - $8 / Dozen
|
We have raised our price for eggs from $7 to $8 per dozen. This will help us better cover our input costs for high quality organic feed, comfortable and clean accommodation and account for the time and energy it takes to keep our hens happy and healthy. We appreciate your understanding.

#3 - Awesome Community Cooperation Happening at the Farm Stand!
|
We are so excited to see our vision for our cooperative farm stand coming to life here at the farm. Our intention with our farm stand was always to increase our variety by collaborating with local producers to bring you all a variety of chemical-free, high quality, delicious food.. all in one place ... and the buzz is starting to catch on! We have a whole whack of jams and jellies from Dreamcatcher farm, fresh blueberries from Sunshine Bay Retreat, some plums from Homegrown Acres as well as gorgeous garlic from Heliotropic Gardens, grown at Dave's place up the road. We will be bringing lots of these goods to market this week as well on behalf of these awesome growers!

Our address is 655 Ferguson Rd. As you drive down the driveway you will pass some old stables. Just beyond the stables is an open area you can park in. Our Farm Stand Cabin is located on the right (north side). You will need to head down the pathway and continue around to the front of the building and enter the cabin off the front deck.
Friendly reminder, things are still a little rough around the edges. Please bare with us as we refurbish and get our little stand in shape!
|
We love feedback! These Farm Stand Days are our opportunity to try new things and see how they are received and enjoyed (or not) by our community. Please feel free to reach out and let us know what you think of any of the products we have on offer.

Payment is through the honour system. We will have a cash box on the table. If you do not have cash you can e-transfer to emshaking@gmail.com. All proceeds from our sales go back into the farm.
