Grand Opening!

After much preparation,  planning, and perspiration Pine Grove Farm is more than happy to announce the opening of our very own General Mercantile down in the Farm Shop!  This has been one of our long range plans for the Shop for quite some time.

In the Mercantile we offer things such as Farm-Yard dirt,  yarn, and wool roving. You will now ,also, find pieces of hand fashioned craftsmanship. Each of these pieces are traditional, American, handicraft produced locally by Friends of Pine Grove Farm.

Our goal is to eventually bring to market all, or most, of the Time-Honored Goods which you would have found in Great-Grandma's Pantry. Things such as Hand-Made Soaps,  Hand-Woven Rugs, Knitted Items,  Pottery, and Wooden furniture. We are not there yet, and may never be without your help in some very important areas.

In order to insure the safety and integrity of the Farm Shop, it's goods, and of you dear Farm Friends, it is necessary for each of us to respect and care for these consignment items. On your trips to the Farm Shop, you will see ever-increasing amounts of  items upon the shelves. Some of these are on consignment (you'll see the tags marked clearly) and some of these are display antiques owned by the Farmer and the Farmer's Wife.  While in the Shop, please be aware that some of these items can be easily broken, and require "kid gloves". Therefore, please take a few moments to make certain that all young hands are being held in larger hands while visiting the Shop. This will help to keep the integrity of our relationship with all of our Farm Friends who have invested so much of themselves into their products.

 There is one, final way, in which all of you can help us here at the Farm. Tell all of  your friends about us and what we have to offer here. Call the Farmer's Wife and set up a time for you to bring some friends to meet her. Realize that each and every one of you plays such an important part in our lives, and we love to offer these services (and more to come!!) to all of you.

Thanks so much for growing with us!
