What's New?

We continue have a good selection of meat as we enter the winter season. 
That includes all our cuts of pork and beef, smoked products like bacon and ham, and several tasty sauages. Pork sausages include breakfast, mild italian, hot italan, fresh chorizo, fresh andouille, smoked chorizo, and HOT DOGS.  We also have beef Chorizo and German Summer sausage (beef and pork).    And we still have a good selection of our whole ducks and chickens.  Check out our meat price and availability list.

 Although we have the "normal" variety  like steaks and sauasage, don't forget everything else we have.  Beef shanks are meaty and great for soup or stews.  Leaner beef roasts like london broil are great for slow cooking.  If you just got a deer and are making sausage get some of our pork fat for combining with the lean venison.  And don't forget our mature stew hens for a thick rich slow cooked soup.  We also have stew roosters that are good for soup or a high moisture cook.

If you are coming by the farm and have a large or specific order please contact us ahead of time and we can have it ready for you (to make sure we have what you want in our self-serve freezer).  We will continue to be at the Ithaca Farmers Market until just before Christmas. We can also bring pre-orders to market.  We have our complete line of meat as well as eggs, potatoes, onions, garlic, and more.

Last summer we had the pleasure of being part of a video series for beginning farmers.  Peter Carroll did an excellent job on these videos and please check them out to learn more about our farm.  They include an excellent overview of our farm  and many videos on how we raise chickens, duck, pigs, and more.  See the left menu of our website for additional videos. New videos will continue to be added.

Our products include: certified organic pork, chicken, turkey, eggs, culinary herbs, and produce (includes onions, garlic, shallots, potatoes, and other vegetables). We also raise grassfed Highland X Angus beef.  Our field work is done with the use of our Fjord and Haflinger horses.

We are certifed organic by NOFA-NY Certified Organic LLC (a USDA accredited certifier) for our produce, pastures, piglets, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and eggs.

Our products are currently available by preorder, at our self serve store on the farm and t
he Ithaca Farmers Market. We try to market everything we raise no farther than 30 miles from the farm.  Support your local farmer!   We are at the market every Saturday from April to December.  Meat and eggs are always available self serve on the farm.
