~Cheese Making 101 part 2~

It is our pleasure to RE-announce our Cheese Making 101! The new date for the class is Aug. 7.  from 10-12. Now, due to the overwhelming response and interest in this class, we are offering it on a first-come-first-served basis. Space is limited, so sign up early. ($15 deposit due @ registration) The price is still $35 (this means remaining $20 due day of class) 

Interest is SO large for this class, that we are working now to get the next class scheduled with the teacher. However, because we don't know when this will be, you shouldn't Provolone signing up for this class. (Sorry, couldn't help myself)

Just drop an email, or give the Farm a call!

                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We also want to announce our new Farm Hours. (For Cow Share Owners only)

Mon- Sat. 9am- 7pm

Sunday 12-4pm

(If you are interested in becoming a Cow Share Owner, or if you want information on the other services we provide- then by appointment only at this time.)

Thanks for making a note of this change.

~To Bless Another~

So, Saturday begins with chores- just like any other farm day. But then we get a call from Sis up in Michigan. It appears that a friend's son from her church is in need of some help. Can we possibly give it to him?

It appears that Ben's bike is having some mechanical problems and we are the closest folk with the ability to help. So The Farmer hops into his truck at 9:30 pm and drives out to Jefferson, MD where Ben is stranded. Together they loaded the bike and all of his gear into the truck and drive back to the Farm. Ben sleeps here and it is so wondreful to be able to share what we have with him. It's amazing how God brings us all together in times of need.

Sunday morning dawns and the Farmer and Ben drive into Winchester. They take the bike and Ben into Element Sports to see about getting the bike fixed. The folk there are so much more than helpful, going over every inch of Ben's bike plus fixing the broken small gear thingy for a very nominal fee.

After the bike is fixed, the Farmer returns Ben to Jefferson, MD. so that he can resume his trek across America.

Good luck, Ben. Our prayers are with you.

Please Don't be Bleu...

Cheese accept our apolocheese. 
Our much anticipated  Cheese Making 101 class has been Provoloned.

Back in the late 1800's, Fromage when the farm house was being built, I doubt there was much interest in electricity.But our wiring is old and sometimes life intervenes. How wonderful it would be if, when things did happen around here, we could fix them immediately....

So our Cheese Class is being set back, and as soon as we get things up and running here in the kitchen again, we'll give everyone advanced notice.  There's Stilton's of interest for this class so much so that all of  you couldn't fit into one time slot. (How wonderful is that?!!?) So if our new date (when we get it) isn't Gouda for your schedule, we'll be able to put you in the following class. After all, everyone will then be able to make their own cheese and Edam up!

Ok, OK, I think I've milked this cheese-pun thing for long enough now..seriously, I'm Feta up..
