Hello to all
and 
Happy Halloween!




To celebrate the fun of Halloween (all treats, no tricks!) tomorrow in the milkhouse you'll find some sweet goodies to keep or share.

Because the week has been filled with harvest-time chores, the selection is limited, but next week, we jump into November with pies, breads, fresh herbs, and all things celebrating Harvest & Home.


Tomorrow you'll find:

Mummy Brownies, Chocolate-coated Pretzel Rods with "eyes",
Monster Cookies (oats, chocolate chips, & M&M's...what's not to LOVE?), and loaves of Fresh Apple Bread.


Also starting tomorrow, I'll have a few Vintage/Retro Halloween items for sale as I share some goodies I've found over the years at barn & farm sales or at local charity shops...they're all a part of something new called:



(original design: Sweet Meadow Dairy)



and as the seasons change, I'll have vintage dishes, bowls, cookie jars, Depression Glass, etc. for sale that you can keep or give as gifts...more to come!

Hope to see you tomorrow, again, so appreciate you for shopping local!

OPEN: Saturday, October 21, 1:00-4:00


Friends & Neighbors,

Apples are plentiful here on the farm...our Fuji apple tree provided me with enough sweet apples for apple pie filling, applesauce, apple butter, apple cider, and still enough left over to share with friends!




I will be open tomorrow 1-4...stop by and you'll find the LAST of this year's zucchini bread, but will find that it's now paired alongside loaves of fresh Apple Bread. 




You'll also find Peanut Clusters, Glazed Apple Pie Bars, and Mason jars filled with Apple Crisp, Apple Crumble, and Blackberry Pandowdy.

Some jars are small...just right for one, while others are a bit bigger - the perfect sharing size.





What's the difference, you say? All are fruit filling with a different topping:


Crisp has crunchy bits of pecans and oats in the streusel

Crumble has an old-fashioned sweet, buttery streusel

Pandowdy has pie crust shapes on top of the fruit


Each Mason Jar is filled with homemade pie filling, and if it's not homemade, it's Amish-made. And always, from-scratch crust.

Hope you can stop by...it's always fun to visit with you!

Open: Saturday, October 14 1:00 - 4:00

 Hi friends & neighbors!

After being closed for two weekends, I wanted to let you know we will be open again tomorrow, 1-4!





With fall's cooler weather, you'll find some new items for sale in the milkhouse...today Mae (my 1950 Hotpoint stove) and I have been in the kitchen baking sweet Apple Pandowdy along with Cherry Cobbler and Peach Cobbler.  You'll also find Zucchini Bread (with and without chocolate chips) - all perfect to enjoy with a steaming cup of herbal tea on these brisk mornings.

There's also plenty of Peanut Clusters, Charlie Brownies (sometimes known as Blondies), and No-Bake Cookies for your sweet tooth, or to enjoy during tomorrow's football games. 

So, stop by when you can and say "Hi"...it's always great to catch up!

As September winds down, there is color everywhere...not the summery colors of geraniums or daisies, but the colors of fall..gold, russet, and crimson. Roadside farm stands are filled with yellow squash, orange pumpkins, golden sweetcorn, and orchards are bursting with juicy apples. For me, this is the best time of the year!




In the milkhouse tomorrow you'll find cookies, zucchini bread, and chocolaty peanut clusters. You'll also find baskets of hot peppers (and a recipe for Firecracker Freezer Pepper Jelly tucked inside) along with bags of green tomatoes (plus a tried & true Fried Green Tomatoes recipe).

Stop by when you can!

Happy Fall friends & neighbors!

Here on the farm, bundles of just-picked herbs lay waiting to be turned into herb weavings, while spatterware buckets filled with tomatoes, onions, and peppers are sitting at the garden's edge.

The pace of summer is winding down, but harvest time has a busyness all its own. This month I'm "putting by" as our grandmothers would say. Tomatoes are being turned into tomato sauce, apples into apple butter, and peppers into jelly. 

September is here, and along with it Fall...my favorite time of year!

I hope you can stop by for a visit!

Hi to all, and for those here in my hometown...thanks so much for stopping by to visit and for shopping local; it's much appreciated!


This Saturday, August 26, you won't find cookies for sale, I'll only be offering baked goods made from zucchini, blackberries, and peaches since they're at the end of their season and they're just too good to let slip by.



Blackberry Galette


In addition to what I have on my own blackberry bushes, I was able to find the last of the blackberries for the season at our local farmer's market. They let me know that peaches will most likely be gone in the next week, and that zucchini will also be out of season by the middle to end of September. It's time to enjoy them while we can!
