WTF Update


We hope that you all have had an excellent summer so far.  We have missed seeing many of you at the markets on Saturdays, and we've enjoyed visiting with other  of you that we have seen while actually shopping at the markets.  It's definitely different seeing the market from the other side of the table after so many years.  We have continued to expand our pork production this summer and have added several new restaurants to our list of clients.  We have also worked really hard at keeping our promise to spend more time with our boys and have more adventures with them.  So far we have spent several weekends swimming, hiking, fishing, mining gems, scuba diving, kayaking, and  traveling to see family and friends.  It's been a great summer!

 

We have always taken time to evaluate our business plan and make changes as needed.  This summer has also given us the opportunity to reevaluate that plan and once again make adjustments.  By now many of you that have called or come to the farm know that we are no longer producing chicken or beef due to the increased costs in the past year.  We have also made the decision to not raise any turkeys for thanksgiving this year.  Hopefully this will be early enough to give all of you a chance to line up something with other farms.  After checking around, it appears that there are still a few farms will be raising turkeys this year, though they may be in a limited quantity so you may want to contact them sooner rather than later.  

 

We hope that you all have a great summer and maybe we'll see you wandering around the markets

 

Thanks for your support, have a great weekend!
