Look at this good, clean whey. We usually get 4 gallons of whey every time we make a double batch of yogurt. That’s 8-12 gallons a week. Whey is fantastic for using in lacto fermentation, watering your garden, and feeding (some of) your animals.
If anyone ever wants any whey, message or text me and I will happily give it to you. We have plenty to go around.

Don’t forget tomorrow is YOGURT SATURDAY!
Next flavor clue:

RESTOCK ALERT!

I doubt these will last long so don’t miss out.

🎃PUMPKIN SPICE CHEESECAKE- lightly sweetened vanilla yogurt on top with pumpkin spice cheesecake filling in the middle and graham cracker crust on the bottom. Made with real spices and pumpkin and doesn’t taste “perfume-y” like some of those pumpkin spice flavors.
🍋 RASPBERRY LEMON CURD-you’ve been asking and here it is! Tangy raspberry yogurt topped with homemade lemon curd. I had two jars of lemon curd left over and one is already spoken for so come grab the other one.
🫐BLUEBERRY ORANGE CHAI-orange chai yogurt is packed with blueberries. It’s not overly spiced, but you can definitely taste vanilla, orange juice, and chai. A perfect blend of warm spice, citrus, and blueberry.
🧈 BUTTER- you know of our struggles with keeping up, in the butter department lately. There are five pounds of fresh salted butter out this morning.
☕️ HALF-AND-HALF-2 pints of half-and-half are available as well. These aren’t flavored and people seem to love them in their coffee.

The last day of the fair was awesome! Stryder got to drive in his first 4wheeler rodeo and we got to buy lambs and hogs to support the Somerset County livestock kids.

Thank you everyone, for your interest in our little auction experiment! We had more interaction than we ever could have expected. We may have some leftover meat that hasn’t been spoken for-just keep tuning in.

Our yogurt fridge is completely empty and we are starting a batch today-to be out on Tuesday, to celebrate the first day of school.

We have an abundance of yogurt flavors but so can’t tell you exactly what is left because we are finishing up at the fair. We will resume a normal schedule next week. Have a great last week of summer!!

Have you ever thought about buying a half of a pig and decided not to because it’s too much for you? We have an idea and wanted to see if there’s any interest.

We love supporting kids in agriculture and tomorrow is the livestock sale at SoSomerset County Fair, Pa are thinking about buying some lambs and/or pigs and making them available in smaller amounts to our customers. We would front the money and you would get to pick the cuts you want. We are not really looking to make money on this – we just love supporting kid entrepreneurs.

Message us or text Ben @ 814-483-0344 or Jill @814-525-0296 TODAY OR TOMORROW MORNING and let us know if you have interest and don’t be afraid to share this. The more interest, the better for the kids.
