Farm Happenings for October 21, 2020

Posted on October 19th, 2020 by Marcus Riedner

Welcome To Winter!

Boy did winter come on fast this year!

We are happy to start slowing things down for the winter season, and transitioning our birds into the barns. For the moment they are still out on pasture (or in the snow when it stays). Don't worry, they are quite content. At night they all cuddle up and during the day they wander about eating snow and hunting for grass. We've been throwing them scraps and culls from the gardens to chase about for.

Extras This Week

This week we have the following extras:

NEW: Jumbo Eggs!
Every now and then our hens lay monster eggs right now. These are often double, or sometimes triple, yolk eggs! If you are interested in trying out mega jumbo eggs you can add them to your order for $4 per half dozen. Supplies are highly limited.

Back In Stock: Pasture Raised Chicken
We have a selection of larger roasting chickens between 2.5kg and 3.5kg. If you are looking for something to have on hand for the Christmas Season that is smaller than a turkey, but still big enough for a seasonal feast meal, our chickens will fit the bill. Supplies are limited, we have about 15 in stock right now. They come frozen, and take about a day to thaw. Price is $13.10 / kg. Just email us the size you'd like and we will hook you up with something that fits.

MoB Honey, Flavoured: $10
MoB Honey, Wild, Small: $5
MoB Honey, Wild, Medium: $10
Chive Blossom & Sage Jelly: $6
