Greetings
from Dancing Hen Farm!
I am happy
to announce that our winter buying club will be open for delivery this
weekend. Ordering will is now open for
the buying club and will close on Thursday
(11/21) at 5 am. Deliveries and pick-ups
will be this weekend. Pick up sites and
times are listed on our website. Contact
the farm if you have questions
ATTENTION
BLOOMSBURG Buying Club members: We are
still determining when we will be getting product to you. If you place an order, we will contact you directly,
either by email or phone to coordinate.
Again, contact the farm if you have questions.
A quick note
on our winter buying club, for those of you new to this option. Our winter buying club is a pay as you go
option. You will meet us at a designated
location, pay for your purchases and pick up your items. We also will need to activate your account
before you can order, so please allow us time to do so. I usually check our website several times
during the day when ordering is taking place.
As always, contact the farm with any questions.
So what can
you find on this week's buying club. We
are happy to say we have a good supply of 2019 Dancing Hen Farm Apple Orchard
pork. Most cuts of pork are now
available, but be aware we sell out of some of the popular items very
quickly. Farmer Don tells me the hams
this year are in larger, perfect for a ham dinner. We also have a good supply of Dancing Hen
Farm Pasture Raised chicken and eggs. Despite
the super cold temperatures, we are still harvesting some greens and Farmer Don
has made a small harvest of greens available.
Again, first come.
Although not
on our buying club, we do have a source for pasture raised ducks. These ducks are being raised by a family
friend. Please contact us for more
information or if you are interested in reserving a duck for the holidays.
Speaking of
the cold, it is hard to believe that we have already seen single digit
temperatures here on farm. I am not
complaining, as it seems we had some really beautiful days to mark the end of
October. With only our laying hens and a
few shivering rows of vegetables to tend to, life is slowing down. Now we will settle in for the winter!
On farm,
winter is a time for healing, resting and reflecting. We will soon have our annual business meeting
to discuss last season and make plans for next season. This is an official meeting between Farmer
Don and I. We schedule a time and even
type up and follow an agenda. We always
welcome feed-back and suggestions, so if you feel inclined, please send us your
comments.
As always,
thank you for your support of not only our small family farm, but sustainable
and local agriculture.
