Hi Everyone,

We are entering the final stretch before the “Holidays”. A few housekeeping items: The turkeys are back from processing and are ready for pick-up. We will be open this Sunday thru Wednesday but closed Thanksgiving Day. After that we will only be open on Weekends until Christmas from 9 to 5. The greenhouses have a great crop of lettuce and greens available for picking. We will not be selling Christmas trees this year; my back still hurts from last year.

We are still taking pie orders (blackbird free) but that will stop once are baking schedule fills up (time and oven capacity) and we are close to that point. We are trying to sell everything before we close for the season starting with the limited amount of ice cream we have left. Anyone that buys a pie can get a quart of ice cream while supplies last for $6.95; flavors are limited.  The quarts usually sell for $8.95 but I will mark down to $7.95; this is Bliss Dairy ice cream which is top of the line. We also have some frozen yogurt and sherbets available. If you buy two quarts the $6.95 super special price will prevail.  We still have oysters available and the ground beef is on sale as well.

We are cleaning house and have lots of things on sale besides ice cream and beef; this includes many useful gardening supplies that make great presents. The Slug Bait is exceptionally pretty tied up with a ribbon. Buy one of our fantastic Bolga baskets at regular price (always a deal) and fill it up with any items from the store at a 20% discount. We have loads of products to choose from including gourmet foods, soaps, books, alpaca clothing, toys, and coal, whatever.

Roxanna doesn’t think I know how to sell anything because I never shop. I might grudgingly admit that there may be some truth in that point. On the weekends that we are open after Thanksgiving I would like to discuss this issue with any of you that happen on by the farm to do your holiday shopping over a cup of hot buttered rum or mulled spiced wine; I’m buying.

Anyway, I know everyone is busy running around in preparation for next Thursday so have a happy Thanksgiving.

Farmer Ron

*Note: The alpaca sale is 15% off of clothing items; whole alpacas are still list price starting at $10,985.00 each.
