Today is the day! Don’t forget turkeys are available fresh and frozen today in the Ranch Store right on the farm from 10-2pm!

One more weekend to come get your pastured, organically fed turkey for the upcoming holiday. Our ranch store is open every Saturday from 10-2pm but turkeys are seasonal for us so once they’re gone, they’re gone!

Have you ever wondered why a grocery store charges $0.99 for a turkey?

It's called a loss leader, and it's a pretty clever retail strategy. By offering popular products at incredibly low prices, sometimes even below what they paid for them, grocery stores encourage you to come through the door. After all, you're probably not leaving with just a turkey! You're also buying potatoes, butter, rolls, stuffing, pie ingredients and everything else that goes into your holiday meal.

But here's where it gets complicated. When consumers see these deeply discounted prices year after year, they begin to shape our perception of what food should cost. Suddenly, a locally raised turkey seems outrageously expensive compared to one advertised for $0.99 even though we're comparing a retailer's marketing strategy to a farmer's cost of production.

Food accessibility matters, and I firmly believe everyone deserves access to nutritious, quality food regardless of income. But there's a difference between making food more accessible and creating the illusion that it's less expensive to produce than it actually is. Large-scale agriculture certainly has efficiencies that small farms cannot replicate, but those distinctions matter when we're comparing the two business models.

Maybe the question isn't always why buying directly from a farmer is most costly, but whether years of strategically discounted food have changed our perception of what food actually costs to produce. ❤️

The world is filled with enough judgement. Choose to be a cheerleader.

“If I’m buying directly from the farmer and cutting out the middleman… shouldn’t it be cheaper?”

It makes sense in theory. But here’s the catch:

You cut out the middleman. You didn’t cut out the middleman’s jobs.

The food still has to be processed, packaged, stored, transported, marketed and sold. Orders still need to be packed. Inventory still needs to be managed. Customers still need someone to answer their questions.

When you buy directly from a small farm, many of those jobs simply move back to the farmer.

Buying direct doesn’t necessarily make food cheaper—it makes the food system shorter!

There are fewer steps between the person raising your food and your dinner table, and more of your food dollar stays with the people doing the work and within the local community.

And for us, that’s really what farm-direct has always been about. ❤️

A few of the tiny faces who made our farm tour that much better. 13 kids ran around, enjoying all the food, questions & people as they spent their day with us!

Tomorrow is the day & by my (surprisingly large) smile, it’s my favorite! We can’t wait to swing the gates open and say hi for this FREE annual event!

The dairy girls are ready to snuggle anyone willing, the tiny teenage chickens are in the pasture, turkeys ready to gobble for you and the piglets are officially ready to meet anyone willing to offer them snacks! Oh and the beefy finish cattle are ready to show off their magical powers of turning plants into protein!

Connecting kids with their food source, we are quite literally opening the doors to see it all!

Where: Widnor Farms
When: Saturday, Sept 12 from 10-4pm

More fun facts about the farm: Although, Widnor Farms only employs one sweet teenager, Ari, super part time, the processing plant, Widnor Meats, that brings our products to the Ranch Store has 4 crew members who make it all happen. Without them & our 3 capable kids, non of this would be possible!

Come help us celebrate a decade of Widnor Farms!

Last year, Gracie girl had her calf ready to greet everyone who came to the Farm for the annual tour! This year, she’s got something epically fun up her sleeve for all the kids coming to see us! Any guesses what it might be?
