Y’all I had to jump on the viral charcuterie bowl trend or as we called them back in the 1900s….meat and cheese trays😅

The idea is simple and super easy to execute and luckily I have almost everything you need available in the farm store! We made this is for an easy weeknight dinner before 4-H and it did not disappoint👌🏻

1. Simply slice and toast up a baguette

2. Dice up the meats- I used our summer sausage and ring bologna

3. Cut the cheese😆 I used Milton Creamery Prairie Breeze and Morning Harvest

4. Give your dog a taste because he’s actually behaving

5. Add olive oil and balsamic vinegar to the pan- don’t ask me measurements just eyeball it

6. Add the meat and cheese to the pan (fresh basil if you have it too), mix and serve on the toasted baguette slices. Also great with salt and vinegar chips!

Honestly so good and easy for those busy summer nights!

Pasture-to-Poultry 🌿🐓

Fresh air, fresh grass, and happy birds!

And just in time too! These guys will be ready to go the end of this month and replenish our farm store freezers. After six years of raising birds on grass we are getting the hang of scheduling hatch and butcher dates for these guys and gals.

We are currently ask $4/lb and will be increasing to $5/lb when our new group hit the freezers. Most of our whole chickens average 4-5 pounds each and tend to last us for several meals!

📣🚨The farm store has moved🚨📣

Same building, but finally a bigger space. No more playing a game of sardines while you shop!

And the best part is we now have turned the old store space into a place to chat and hang out while you’re shopping with us. I have had so many customers over the years joke that we need to have a pot of coffee and a place to hang out while they chat, and now we finally do!

Come out, grab what you need and stay for awhile. This is truly my favorite part about farm store days, connecting with all of you!

If any of you watch my stories you’ll have seen that I shared a post about how delayed gratification and farming go hand in hand. I couldn’t agree with this sentiment more!

A fine example would be our highland herd. It all started with Shaymus’ impulse buy at the sale barn and turned into a real experiment in growing a new herd from there😂

So what’s the plan with the highlands you ask?

Grass fed beef……a few years from now. We are hoping this first year’s calving will produce a nice crop of calves that we can then fatten out on grass alone. Unfortunately finishing cattle on grass usually takes a minimum of two years. So it’s a waiting game and a learning process on our end.

We’ve had many a customer who have shown interest in grass fed beef, but unfortunately it’s just not cost-effective or really a viable option to switch over our current spring and fall herds to grass fed at this time. This is where the highlands take center stage……

So ✌🏻instant gratification….the highlands and Smith family are in it for the long haul.

Is it just me or is May possibly the busiest month of the year?!?! 😅

We are gearing up for a weekend of celebrating at grad parties and bridal showers and wanted to let you know our store hours will be a little different than normal.

We will only be open Friday evening this week, but will stay open a little later to make sure you can stop in!
