We don’t have a dedicated retail space on the farm. The kitchen and dining area are converted into a sales floor, with bins of meat set out for display on the dining room table, boxes of yarn stacked on the cookstove (unlit, of course), reusable bags piled up in baskets beside the woodstove, a check […]

Thanksgiving Discussion
My neighbor and long time customer, Corbie Mitleid, invited me to join her for a discussion about unplugging the Thanksgiving holiday this week on Empower Radio. Feel free to check it out here.
