🍂 We’ve been a little quiet over here…

Life has hit us pretty hard lately, and the farm stand still hasn’t quite recovered from the storm. But we’re slowly finding our way back. 🖤

The sourdough starter is officially out and feeding, and I’m hoping to have fresh sourdough bagels ready for porch pickup Sunday! 🥯

And with the “ber” months almost here, I want to know…

👇 What are your favorite fall treats or flavors?

Pumpkin? Apple? Maple? Cinnamon? Caramel? Something totally different?

Tell me in the comments! I’m looking for some inspiration for what Black Dog Homestead should make this fall. 🍁

And while the farm stand is getting back in shape, would you be interested in preorders + porch pickup?

Update: down to 4 dozen eggs!!

Well... it looks like our hens have been a little more productive than our customers this week. 😂🐓

That means we currently have 9 dozen fresh farm eggs available! Unwashed and collected in the past 10 days. $5 a dozen

If you'd like a dozen (or a few!), just comment below or send me a message. As always, it's first come, first served until they're gone.

Small businesses are more than just storefronts—they're made up of real people who pour their hearts into what they do every single day.

Right now, some friends of mine are facing an incredibly difficult season, and their team has been unexpectedly impacted by a temporary closure. If you've ever been welcomed by their staff, enjoyed a meal there, or simply believe in supporting hardworking people when life throws them a curveball, please consider donating to their GoFundMe.

No amount is too small. Even $5 can make a difference when a community comes together. And if donating isn't possible right now, sharing this fundraiser could help it reach someone who can.

Thank you for showing what community is all about. ❤️

🩵 Nope... these aren't robin eggs! 🥚

These are the very first "baby eggs" from our newest hens! 💙

When young chickens first start laying, their eggs are often smaller than normal. Over the next month or so, they'll begin laying more consistently, and the eggs will gradually grow to full size.

That means one very exciting thing... more fresh eggs will be available at the farm stand each week! 🐓

We can't wait to watch these girls settle into their new job. Stay tuned—our egg basket is about to get a whole lot fuller! 🐾🖤

🌿 Fresh chives from the garden! Available this weekend at the farm stand.

I should have 6-7 dozen eggs available as well.

I'm not sure if the actual farm stand will be open or if I'll have a set up on the porch but I will post details by Friday about the hours on Saturday and the location of everything!

I know I haven't been able to get the Farm stand up and running, but if you like my bagels... You're going to love my waffles!

Get your fix tonight at the Dyer concert at Central Park at 5:00. P.m.! Hope to see some familiar faces.

Hello everyone. Sorry for being MIA for the past few weeks. Between losing the ducks, catching 7 racoons and an opossum (and still catching more as recent as last night), my husbands car flooding in all the rain and insurance calling it a total loss, the farm stand flooding... It's been a stressful few weeks to say the least.

We're slowly getting back to a normal routine but I just haven't even had the time to think about baking.

TLDR Version: I'm going to be closed until July 10th but then I'll be back to having eggs and baked goods available.

Picture of one of the new chicks for attention ☺️

Thank you for understanding 💜
