Frozen On Your Doorstep

Watch the video to discover the hidden message when you dig a little deeper 🤠


Haha wow, that was a lot of fun to write. Can't say watching videos for secret messages comes up in farm correspondence very often ;)


That said you really should watch the video above to see what I'm talking about.


So I wanted to share with you some big changes we have made to our shipping boxes to ensure everything arrives frozen or very very cold (even when Fedex drops the ball...)


First we start with a pretty neat heavy duty box....

I designed it myself as you will see in a minute once you watch the video.


Then we have two special heavy duty insulated liners.


Both are fully recyclable and do a great job - they can both keep your order frozen for 2+ days!


If you live closer to the farm you will likely get the liner pictured below. Its a recycled paper cooler about 2 inches thick.  Your order will also be inside the reflective bag which helps keep it extra cold - the bag repurposes great for keeping packed lunches cold :)

If you live a little further away from the farm or during very hot weather, we will use this heavy duty cooler. It is also curbside recyclable!

After we select the right cooler we carefully pack your order and then add a little dry ice or ice packs to keep if cold if there are any delays.


We ship all the boxes on Tuesdays and your box of pasture raised goodness should land on your doorstep on Wednesday to Friday frozen or extremely cold - we send out an email with a tracking number so you can know just when it will arrive!


It can then be refrigerated or refrozen for later use :)

{Watch} Onto Fresh Pasture

As part of our regenerative grazing plan we are continually moving the cows, sheep, chickens...... onto fresh pasture. Some people imagine this would be quite the roundup to be constantly moving all of those animals. While it does take time, the animals also learn very very quickly that when we call it means fresh pasture is just ahead and they sure get excited about that. Often just a few calls and the cattle or sheep will just follow us into the fresh sward of pasture.  One of my favorite parts of moving the cattle is just how excited they get. They are massive creatures and yet they jump and throw their heads around in excitement just like their young calves haha. 

Sounds Of The Farm - The Laying Hens

One thing I love to do on the farm on sunny afternoons (when the chores are done and there is time to reflect a little) is to just go out and sit in the field with the animals. Listening to their unique sounds and quirky ways combined with the fresh air, gentle breeze and soft sunshine is some excellent relaxation at the end of a long day. I had the opportunity to do this with the hens the other day and I thought I would record it and share it with you. I think I will do a bit of a series on the different "sounds of the farm" and beginning with the hens. "Cluck, cluck" doesn't quite do justice to the sounds they make out on pasture. What do you think?
