Nebula aka Nebbie, was a friends goat that we adopted. We bred her with Stanley our Boer buck. We got 3 beautiful babies! 2 bucklings and a doeling. Nebbie is a boer/kiko so the boys will be our first bred meat goats.
She’s been an excellent mama so far…handling 3 like a champ! Not many mamas can do this!

You must check out Gusto Napoletano Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant!!

This is the last call for the pasta special orders for tomorrow evening.

By the way, whenever possible, we love to get our meats from local farmers. This special sauce for tomorrow was made thanks to a wonderful grass-fed stew cut from our friends at Farms Helping Families Corp located on Cedar Creek Rd.

If you are into quality vs quantity, I strongly recommend them. Their bundles are awesome.

Good afternoon!

For those that have ordered online and order online regularly, please text me for order pick up. We will try to accommodate. We have 2 major projects that need our undivided attention and I am limited on staff next week.

Please understand these next 2 weeks are going to be tough for us to accommodate to everyone’s time schedule. I’m adjusting hours for pick up to when I know I’ll be at the main farm.
