Keeping our turkeys safe out in open pasture is a 24/7 job. Coyote activity in our area increases in the fall, so it’s important to be proactive - we keep our bulls in the same pasture as the flock to discourage predators like coyotes from coming around. The bulls also help protect our sheep, making them a versatile player in our livestock lineup.
Our turkeys are sold out, but pre-orders for veggies and other meats for your Thanksgiving feast are open! Pre-orders are due Monday November 22 at noon. Find all the details and availability information on our website.
Ever wonder what 1,000 pounds of cabbage looks like? 🥳😍 All hands were in the Ley field today harvesting the winter cabbages. Available in the Farmstore, they’re perfect for roasting, braising, or making your own sauerkraut!⠀

For an easy supper, brown some of our pork or chicken sausages in a big heavy pot, add a chopped cabbage and a bottle of dark beer, and let it simmer for about an hour - delicious!
Earlier this week the weather was perfect for winter bed prep. Around the middle of Autumn, we begin to prep various garden and flower beds for winter so that they have healthy rich soil in the spring. Using old baleage as a form of mulch in the fall, we ensure full ground cover that doubles as a carbon source for soil life that will eventually break down over the course of the winter. Any remaining baleage can be easily raked out by the spring and the beds are ready to go to begin planting into!
Autumn in the garden - it’s always sad to say goodbye to our summer crops, but the beautiful, delicious brassicas harvested from our Ley field soften the blow. Broccoli and cabbages are now in the Farmstore!
Yesterday we closed out wedding season on Sweetest Day. We hope our guests cherished every moment of their beautiful fall wedding on a day inspired by love. Congratulations J&J! ⠀

To reduce the impact and emissions of constant mowing, our estate crew works with the livestock team to utilize sheep (and cattle) to graze areas that traditionally would have been mowed. Using temporary fencing, the flock is moved around the property improving soil fertility and root structure as they go. Our livestock crew makes sure to interact with them daily to socialize them and train them to move with ease from one paddock to another.
