CLOSED: Saturday, November 18 and 25

 

Friends & Neighbors,

A note to let you know that Sweet Meadow Dairy will not  be open tomorrow or the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

I'll be back on Saturday, December 2 with cookies galore! You'll find cookies arranged on vintage plates, yummy treats tucked into sweet little cups, or piled high on retro plates or in bowls...all ready for gift-giving. (Prices will vary depending on the plate/teacup/glassware).

There will also be cookies bagged up for you to arrange in your own cookie tins, slip into stockings, or keep for yourselves!

See you Saturday December 2...and remember to dress warmly, the old milkhouse is just like it was when built in 1950 - unheated!

OPEN - SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 11 1:00 - 4:00

 

Friends & Neighbors,

It's PIE WEEK here on the farm...just in time for Thanksgiving, and Mae & I have been up early baking pies to share!

If you have time to visit, today you'll ONLY  find pies for sale:

Each pie has the name of the person who shared the recipe with me or who inspired a handed-down, tried & true recipe.

Lisa's Chocolate Chip Pie 

    like a chocolate chip cookie!

Tara's Everything but the Kitchen Sink Pie 

    filled with chocolate chips, coconut, caramel bits, & pecans

Aggie's Crumble Apple Pie   

    apples topped with a sweet, buttery crumble

Aggie's Double-topped Apple Pie

    apples topped with a brown sugar crumble, then topped with pie crust

Ida's Cherry Pie

    a combination of tart and dark, sweet cherries

Clara's Cinnamon Roll-topped Bumbleberry Pie

    strawberries, cherries, & blueberries topped with cinnamon roll crust      drizzled with icing ... what a fun name!

Pies are special...it's a sweet invitation to hear, "Stay for pie!" when visiting family & friends. We each have our own favorite flavor and the discussions about all-butter vs. shortening crusts are always lively!

You won't find any "picture perfect" pies here, just pies made with love.

Because I'm a "one woman show" as the saying goes, there are a limited number of pies available. Some will even still be warm when they go to the milkhouse!

Prices range from $15 to $20

And remember to dress warmly...the old milkhouse is unheated!

Hope to see you soon!

 

OPEN: Saturday November 4, 1:00 - 4:00

 Happy November friends & neighbors!

October found me getting ready for the approach of winter...wood is stacked by the mudroom door, animals have been tucked in with extra bedding, bales of hay have been stacked in place...now all we can do is wait and see what Old Man Winter brings us!

Last week's Mummy Brownies disappeared so quickly, that I've decided to follow the inspiration of The Great British Bake Off and give each week it's own theme. This allows me to focus on one main bake, and you will know just what you'll find when you stop by.

As we get closer to the holidays I'll have Pie Week, Bread Week, Cookie Week, as well as others.

By special request, this week is:

Brownie Week!

Right now Mae (my 1950 Hotpoint oven) is baking up 4 different kinds of stuffed brownies...

Oreo

Nutella Cookie

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup

York Peppermint Patty

I'll also have Triple Chocolate Brownies available filled with chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, and mini M&M's.

These aren't little brownie squares, these are baked in Muffin Cups so they're big, chocolaty, dense, & fudgy...a chocolate lover's dream!

And while definitely not a Brownie, I stopped by my favorite local Farmer's Market this week before it closes until spring, and I was so lucky to find they had local, late-season raspberries which I'm baking into loaves of Raspberry-Lemon Bread.

Look forward to seeing you tomorrow...and thanks again for shopping local!
